| <h4>What Is a Java SE Application?</h4> | |
| <p>A Java SE application is an application written to the Java Platform, Standard | |
| Edition (Java SE). The same unmodified Java SE applications can be run on almost | |
| any computer, whether that computer uses the Microsoft Windows, Solaris, Linux, | |
| or OS X operating systems. The key to this application portability is the | |
| Java Runtime Environment, which is available free of charge for most operating | |
| systems, including all of the ones mentioned above.</p> | |
| <p>In addition to being a platform for multi-platform desktop applications, the | |
| Java SE platform is the basis for other technologies such as Java Platform, | |
| Enterprise Edition. You might find yourself writing Java code that provides | |
| back-end logic for web and enterprise applications as well.</p> | |
