9 | 42 | Henning Blohm | It is beneficial to use the Eclipse IDE (Ganymed, Helios, Indigo, Kepler work all fine). There's a small Eclipse plug-in called "Eclipsoid" which makes it easier to develop z2 applications within Eclipse (see [[Step 3 - First steps with Z2 on Git]] for more details). That plugin is also available for Intellij. However you can use any IDE (including vi and notepad) together with z2. |

11 | 28 | Udo Offermann | h2. Creating a _home_ for Z2 |
12 | 1 | Udo Offermann | |
13 | 28 | Udo Offermann | This is a best practice approach (and other approaches are possible). We recommend to keep the repositories and the IDE workspace close together. This way we don't need to adjust the path settings in the Z2 configuration files and they can remain relative paths. |
14 | 1 | Udo Offermann | |
15 | Create a folder called z2-base inside your favorite/home/development/what-ever directory and enter it: |
||
16 | |||
17 | 43 | Henning Blohm | <pre><code class="bash"> |
18 | 42 | Henning Blohm | mkdir z2-base |
19 | cd z2-base |
||
20 | </code></pre> |

22 | 42 | Henning Blohm | h2. Installing the z2-base Distribution |
23 | 1 | Udo Offermann | |
24 | 42 | Henning Blohm | The fastest way to start with z2 is by installing the z2-base distribution that contains the z2-core and complete copy of the z2-base.base component repository in one installable archive and requires no access to remote repositories (see also [[How_to_create_your_own_system]] for more details). |
25 | 34 | Henning Blohm | |
26 | 42 | Henning Blohm | In order to install, "download":https://redmine.z2-environment.net/projects/z2-environment/files from the web site and unpackage. |

31 | 38 | Henning Blohm | |
32 | 46 | Henning Blohm | Make sure to have a Java Development Kit (JDK) or a Java Runtime Environment of version 9 or later installed and executable. Test this by running |
33 | 38 | Henning Blohm | |
34 | 43 | Henning Blohm | <pre><code class="bash"> |
35 | 1 | Udo Offermann | java -version |
36 | 42 | Henning Blohm | </code></pre> |
