9 | 48 | Henning Blohm | The z2-Environment is an open source infrastructure to develop, configure, and run modular, standards-based Java applications without build infrastructure nor deployment procedures and so reduces development operations costs significantly. |
10 | 1 | Redmine Admin | |
11 | 2 | Redmine Admin | During development and maintenance you do not need to have a local build environment installed that complements your source code. |
12 | 1 | Redmine Admin | |
13 | The z2-Environment rebuilds Java sources as required and selectively from your development workspace leading to fast development roundtrips and consistent deployments, and ultimately to minimized integration pains. |

14 | 48 | Henning Blohm | |
15 | 115 | Henning Blohm | The Z2 component model makes developing modular Java solutions easy, comprehensible, and manageable. Z2 shines when used to develop, run, and maintain complex front end and back end solutions. |
16 | 1 | Redmine Admin | |
17 | 127 | Henning Blohm | An an application server environment, Z2 integrates perfectly with Spring, Hibernate/JPA, Vaadin, and much more. |
18 | |||
19 | Z2 is used in several large software systems, hosting highly modularized code bases of 600000 lines of code and rising. |

20 | 66 | Henning Blohm | |
21 | 9 | Henning Blohm | This Wiki contains answers to all kinds of practical questions on using Z2. |

80 | 47 | Henning Blohm | h2. Projects |
81 | |||
82 | This site is split into sub projects: |
||
83 | |||
84 | * project:z2-base: The base components of z2. |
||
85 | * project:z2-core: The z2 kernel included with z2 base with sources |
||
86 | * project:z2-addons: Add-ons that complement z2-base with additional features |
||
87 | * project:z2-samples: Home of the samples listed below. |
||
88 | |||
89 | 36 | Henning Blohm | And then there is... |
90 | 9 | Henning Blohm | |
91 | 1 | Redmine Admin | h2. Samples |
92 | |||
93 | There are various samples available that highlight specific use-cases and may serve as a solution template, when you just cannot get it to work or do not know where to start. |

97 | 50 | Henning Blohm | h2. Howtos |
98 | |||
99 | Howtos provide practical information on various aspects that you may run into when looking deeper. |

103 | 26 | Henning Blohm | h2. Add-ons |
104 | 9 | Henning Blohm | |
105 | 53 | Henning Blohm | The z2 base distribution is really just the most basic but still practically useful set of z2 modules. Addon repositories provide additional modules that add complete feature sets. Addons are versioned along with z2 base and may be included by simply adding component repositories. |
106 | 9 | Henning Blohm | |
107 | 1 | Redmine Admin | {{child_pages(Addons,parent=1)}} |
108 | |||
109 | When productising your solution, you will want to isolate yourself from intermediate changes outside of your control. See also [[How to create your own system]] for more information how Z2 accomplishes that with pure version control tool use. |
