The JSP integration in OpenCms

This part of the documentation describes the basics of JSP application development with OpenCms. It provides an overview and some background information about the technology used for the OpenCms JSP integration.

Please note that this is not an introduction to JSP developing, there are certainly many good tutorials or books for that around.

The JSP integration part in OpenCms is called Flex. So if we talk about an OpenCms/Flex or just a Flex application, we actually mean a JSP application built with OpenCms. The name Flex was chosen because the ultimate goal of the JSP integration was to make OpenCms more flexible to use. We think that we have achieved that goal. But judge for yourself...
