A superb extension with great customer support! We have an large, extensive applet that displays automated weather reports from commercial aircraft that is used by weather services world-wide. Thanks to CheerpJ we can now run it again in a browser (chrome). The CheerpJ version is FAST, able to display 800,000+ wind barbs in just a couple of seconds. We’re very happy indeed.
Fantastic job. My large JAVA applet for a visual interactive discovery of derivatives and integrals of vector fields had been used all around the world for almost 20 years — then the browsers effectively killed it by withdrawing support for JAVA. I had not been able to rewrite it as a freestanding JAVA main program. So happy when I discovered CheerpJ in the spring. So many happy students, instructors, and folks from everywhere who just to play and discover!

This is great! I had a set of online “animated diagrams” as Java applets since about 1999. Over the years, support for Java in browsers has disappeared due to security concerns. Now I can see my old applets again.

Simply amazing simplicity and effectiveness. Very useful with old switches that only have a Java Applet interface and other similar appliances. Great job!

The Java Applet I am using looks and behaves very similarly under CheerpJ on a modern computer, vs an ancient computer with an old browser that actually runs Java applets. Performance is good, too. Five stars!
Leaning Technologies coupled their clear ability to extend their toolset to support the ultimate software challenge with an unwavering determination to achieve the level of perfection required.
