Im definitely open to make a GUI that does that but it will need approval from the rest of the AdoptOpenJDK team as to whether or not the updater gets bundled with the installer or not. I hope they agree to do that as that would be the easiest way to distribute it.

@maverick74 This updater currently supports both the JDK and JRE. In order to download the JRE all you have to do is pass the argument "-jre" on the command line. Otherwise, the program will default to the JDK. On Windows, the update check will also check the currently installed JRE version instead of the JDK version if you pass the argument "-jre". My next project is to make a GUI for booth versions but I only know how to do that with Java 11 and higher due to JavaFX not being available on maven prior to Java 11. Swing will have to be used in order to make a GUI for Java 8 if a GUI is found to be required for Java 8.

That's not a problem to me as I'm only interested in the latest versions. So, to have a GUI for JRE 11+ is just fine to me.
What I truly want from OpenJDK is to install it and be in peace knowing that when a new version is released it will alert me and update itself if I tell it I want the new version (just like Java used to).
So if your GUI for 11+ will do that and came bundled in the installer I'll be happy with it :)

So, should i open a new bug/feature request for the GUI here or in the AdoptOpenJDK's github?

I will be beginning to work on a GUI for Java 11 and later starting this weekend using JavaFX so a feature request is not needed for that but if you would like to create one for Java 8 to be made using swing, that would be appreciated and if you do please create one in both places and link the one on this repo to the one on the AdoptOpenJDK page so that people are redirected here.
