how to open a jar file with double click instead of terminal on Mac

Time:06-30

I write basic java programs for fun, and unfortunately I cannot run their jar files with double clicking. However, I can open jar files through terminal with no issue. could you please explain to me the issue and how to fix it? I reordered my screen and uploaded it on YouTube if you want to see what happens when I click on a jar file:

Downloading a Java Runtime Environment can do the trick.

For future projects you may want to checkout Launch4j. It is a tool to convert your runnable .jar file to an .exe.
