To build the jextract sources, the easiest option is to download LLVM binaries for your platform, which can be found [here](https://releases.llvm.org/download.html) (a version <= 9 is required). Both the `jextract` tool and the bindings it generates depend heavily on the [Foreign Function & Memory API](https://openjdk.java.net/jeps/419), so a suitable [jdk 18 distribution](https://jdk.java.net/18/) is also required.
should be `version >= 9` right?
