At first, make sure you have java installed on your system. To check that open Terminal (ctrl + alt + t) and run java -version
If you don't see any version then you have to install OpenJDK on your system. To do that run these two commands
sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jre
sudo apt-get install openjdk-11-jdk
and check your java -version again.
Once you successfully install java on your system then you have to install JOGL. To do that run this command on terminal.
sudo apt-get install libjogl2-java
After installing JOGL install eclipse
Now Open Eclipse and Create a Java project and give your project a name.
You can also find it under File > New > Java Project
After giving a nice name in your project Click Next
From the Libraries select Classpath and click Add External JARs 
Navigate to /usr/share/java/ and choose these two files jogl2.jar and gluegen2-rt.jar.If you import correctly then You should see those file's paths under Classpath. Now click Finish (You can skip creating Module).
Now expand your project from the sidebar and right-click on src then Create a new class
If everything is done correctly a Canvas window will pop up after running your JOGL code!
