My first Jenkins installation

after a good 3 hours, eventually i have managed to setup my first Jenkins on Ubuntu 16.04.4
due to some oversight i have actually set it up on the desktop version of Ubuntu. However, it should be working similarly to the recommended server version. I follow the instruction on https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-jenkins-on-ubuntu-16-04, but reader should take note that java jre and jdk are not installed automatically as dependency as guided in the url. I did a manual install via
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jre-headless
sudo apt install openjdk-8-jdk-headless

I have actually tried with server edition 18.04. it couldn't find the package of openjdk-8-jdk, causing Jenkins to fail installation
