What is the difference between Minecraft Java and Bedrock Edition?

Buying Minecraft on PC includes both editions.

Are there cheats in Minecraft?

Yes. Each world can have cheats enabled, letting you use built-in commands such as /gamemode, /give, /time set and /weather to change the game. These commands are an official feature rather than third-party hacks, though turning on cheats can disable achievements for that particular world.
