Recommended browser

Recommended Browser

Chrome is the best-recommended browser to use since the Zephyr framework utilizes modern web technology which can be best rendered by using the Chrome browser. Other modern browsers such as Firefox can work too

Chrome is Zephyr's recommended browser of choice because using another browser may lead to certain UI objects not being optimally rendered on the screen within the Zephyr application. For instance, users may experience extra scroll bars, buttons not working, text not being selectable, etc.

Note on Oracle JDK license update

Oracle JDK License Update

Oracle has recently changed the licensing terms for Java Standard Edition 8 (required by Zephyr). Here's a summary of the impact and what Zephyr is doing about this:

  • Java SE 8 remains free - so customers can use it without incurring a license charge.
  • However, in the future, any bug fixes and security updates when using Java SE 8 for commercial use will require a license/support contract to receive those updates.
  • To avoid any potential vulnerability in the future and to avoid any additional costs to our customers, we recommend using OpenJDK instead.

OpenJDK (the recommended Java version) can be downloaded from https://jdk.java.net/java-se-ri/8-MR3

Oracle Java SE 8 can be downloaded from https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/pt/java/javase/downloads/jdk8-downloads-2133151.html

Note: Java embedded with Linux OS distribution will not work with Zephyr.
