Background
Java Platform, Standard Edition (Java SE) lets you develop and deploy
Java applications on desktops and servers, as well as in today’s
demanding embedded environments. Java offers the rich user interface,
performance, versatility, portability, and security that today’s
applications require.
IcedTea’s aim is to provide OpenJDK in a form suitable for easy
configuration, compilation and distribution with the primary goal of
allowing inclusion in GNU/Linux distributions.
