Recommended browser

Warning

Chrome is the best-recommended browser since the Zephyr framework utilizes modern web technology, which the Chrome browser can best render. Other modern browsers, such as Firefox, can also work.

Chrome is Zephyr's recommended browser because using another browser may cause particular UI objects to not be 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.

Important

Oracle JDK License Update

Oracle has recently changed the licensing terms for Java Standard Edition 17.0.10 or later (required by Zephyr). Here's a summary of the impact and what Zephyr is doing about this:

Oracle JDK 17.0.10 is not accessible for commercial use. It is subject to Oracle’s Binary Code License Agreement (BCLA). Suppose you plan to use it in a production environment. In that case, you’ll need to obtain a commercial license from Oracle or consider using OpenJDK, an open-source alternative to Oracle JDK.
Remember to keep your JDK up to date for security and performance improvements! For further details, refer to the official release notes.
We recommend using OpenJDK instead to avoid any potential vulnerability in the future and to avoid any additional costs to our customers.

OpenJDK (the recommended Java version) can be downloaded from https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/javase/jdk17-archive-downloads.html

Oracle Java SE 17.0.10 or later can be downloaded from https://www.oracle.com/in/java/technologies/downloads/#java17

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