Solutions can stand alone, or they may also be a module. A module is a solution that is part of another solution. A solution can be specified to be a module, but it is not required to use a solution as a module.

Solution types

Solutions can be built for a specific purpose or a specific client technology. In Servoy there are 3 client technologies to choose from:

-NG client, which runs in a modern browser and uses angularjs and websockets

-Webclient, which runs in a browser and uses ajax (this client technology is available for backward compatability only)

-Smart client, which runs on computers using java runtime edition and uses an RMI connection

-Servoy mobile, which runs in a browser or embed in phonagap/Cordova, and works with local offline data
