| # Demonstration Applets and Applications | Documentation Contents

The applets available below demonstrate features of the Java platform. Swing set demos are available in the `demo/jfc` directory of the JavaTM 2 SDK installation. Each Swing demo has an associated README.txt file that you should read for instructions on running the demo.

### Browser Requirements

In general, applets can run in AppletViewer or in JavaTM-compatible browers as noted below. Of course, applets that depend on any new APIs will not work on any browsers that support only earlier version APIs, so there are version restrictions.

- Java 2 Platform-based Applets - The AppletViewer in the Java 2 SDK or future compatible versions of Netscape, Internet Explorer, or other browsers (whether with or without the Java Plug-In).
- Java 1.1 Applets - Use HotJava 1.0, AppletViewer 1.1 or 1.1-compatible versions of Netscape, Internet Explorer, or other browsers.
- Java 1.0 Applets - Use Netscape 3.0, Internet Explorer 3.0, HotJava pre-beta, or AppletViewer 1.0 or a later version of any of these

The AppletViewer is provided with the Java 2 SDK, Standard Edition, in the SDK's `bin` directory. For information about how to use the AppletViewer and other SDK tools, see Java 2 SDK Tools and Utilities.
