Description
The DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md -> Install Prerequisites -> JDK-17 mentions bundled JDK version. It also points to buildSrc/version.properties and contains a short snippet from that file. But it is outdated.
As of writing the version of bundled JDK is set to 20.x
Shall the DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md be updated or reformulated to not mention specific JDK version?

Research direction
Start with the JDK-17 section in DEVELOPER_GUIDE.md and compare its bundled JDK details with buildSrc/version.properties. Decide whether the guide should reflect the current version or avoid specifying one, then update the documentation so its prerequisite guidance matches the source and no longer contains outdated details.
