The software is Java based. The author is René Grothmann of the Catholic University of Eichstätt-Ingolstadt. It is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL).
Assignments
Assignments make possible to create Java applets, for a construction exercises. These applets can be used from the command line using the AppletViewer. (Previously, they could be run in a browser, but Java support in browsers has been disabled in recent years.)
