Eclipse RAP Runtime (Remote Application Platform)
Welcome and thank you for your interest in this project. The Eclipse RAP Runtime provides a powerful widget toolkit and integrates well with proven technologies such as Java EE and OSGi. You can write your application entirely in Java, reuse code and benefit from world-class IDE tools.

Building RAP Runtime
The RAP project uses Maven in combination with Eclipse Tycho to build its bundles, features, examples and p2 repositories, and it's easy to run the build locally! All you need is Maven installed on your computer, and then you need to run the following command from the root pom.xml
of the RAP Runtime Git repository:
mvn clean verify
As a result, you get a p2 repository with all RAP e3 Runtime bundles and features in
releng/org.eclipse.rap.build/repository/target/repository/
and a second one with the RAP e4 Runtime bundles in
releng/org.eclipse.rap.build/repository.e4/target/repository/
Official builds are available from the RAP Download page.
Compiling and building the RAP demo projects is explained here.
