RE: minimWatch not launching on latest java
MinimServer and MinimWatch can run on the latest Java version 12 and all earlier versions from version 7 onwards.

Unfortunately, the latest Java installer for macOS is using a different install location than the location used by version 8. This requires changes to the MinimServer and MinimWatch install packages for macOS. These changes are not simple as the MinimServer/MinimWatch install packages for macOS have various complex dependencies on the Java install location and installation structure. Also, the MinimServer/MinimWatch install packages need to continue to work with Java 8 as well as supporting the current Java version. I will work on making these changes but at this stage I cannot say when the updated MinimServer/MinimWatch install packages for macOS will be available.

In the interim, it is possible to have Java 8 installed in /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/JavaAppletPlugin.plugin/Contents/Home for use by MinimServer and MinimWatch and also have the latest Java installed in the new location for use by other Java applications.
