It included:

* core language features (basic java types in java.lang, and utility classes in java.util)

* support for graphics ([[Abstract_Window_Toolkit|AWT]] framework)

* support for creating a [[Java applet]]

* libraries for [[Input/output|I/O]] and [[Computer_network|networking]]

* [[inner class]]es added to the language

* [[JavaBeans]]

* [[Java Database Connectivity]] (JDBC) and support for [[sql]]

* [[Java remote method invocation]] (RMI) and [[serialization]]

* [[Reflective programming|reflection]] which supported Introspection only, no modification at runtime was possible. (The ability to modify objects reflectively was added in J2SE 1.2, by introducing the {{Javadoc|module=java.base|package=java.lang.reflect|class=AccessibleObject|text=AccessibleObject}} class and its subclasses such as the {{Javadoc|module=java.base|package=java.lang.reflect|class=Field|text=Field}} class.)
