For Minecraft Java shaders today, you no longer need OptiFine: Iris with Sodium loads the same packs, runs the game faster, and arrives much sooner for new versions. These are two free mods that you can install in just a few minutes.

Shaders change the way Minecraft renders the scene: real shadows, water reflections, light filtering through leaves, and believable day/night cycles. They come at a performance cost, and how much depends heavily on the pack: some run on integrated graphics, while others will push a dedicated GPU to its limits.
