Prerequisites

---

Java JDK 11

Make sure you have the JDK version of Java 1 installed. There are many different builds, but perhaps the most common is Adoptium, which you can download from the following link (add your operating system and your computer’s architecture): Adoptium JDK

Check the option to set the JAVA_HOME variable.

Following installation, make sure you have correctly installed Java JDK 1 by invoking the following commands in the command-line java -version

On the Mac, the command-line is available via the Terminal >application. On the PC, it’s available as Command Prompt.

The result should look similar to:

C:\>java -version
openjdk version "11.0.21" 2023-10-17
OpenJDK Runtime Environment Temurin-11.0.21+9 (build 11.0.21+9)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Temurin-11.0.21+9 (build 11.0.21+9, mixed mode)

Maven 3.6.0 or newer

Maven is required for downloading and using the Ontimize Boot application archetype, managing the libraries contained in the framework and even for running the application. You can download Maven from its official project page at the following link: Maven

Follow the installation steps indicated in the official web site

To check the installation, run the following command at a command prompt mvn -v. The result should look similar to:

C:\>mvn -v

IDE

It is not absolutely necessary to use an IDE, but it is highly recommended and helps the development of the application. We recommend the use of IntelliJ (in its Community or Ultimate version), Eclipse (in its Enterprise Java and Web Developers version) or Visual Studio Code.
