Line 13: Important Web Start features include the ability to automatically download and install JRE's in case the user does not have Java installed (although this does not work with every browser and platform), and for programmers to specify which JRE version is needed to run a given program. Also, the user doesn't have to remain connected to the Internet to execute the downloaded programs, because they execute from a locally-maintained [[cache]]. Finally, automatic updates of the software from the Web is available when the user is connected to the Internet, thus easing the burden of deployment. == Known Webstart Applications == * [http://ganttproject.sourceforge.net/ Gantt Project] - A open source project management tool. * [http://argouml.tigris.org/ ArgoUML] - A open source UML modeling tool. == References ==
