<p>JABAWS consists of a server and a client, but unlike most bioinformatics web-service systems, you can download and run both parts on your own computer! If you want a server just for yourself, then download and install the <a class="reference external" href="va.html">JABAWS Virtual Appliance (VA)</a>. It requires no configuration and is simple to install. If you want to install JABAWS for your lab or institution then download the <a class="reference external" href="war.html">JABAWS Web Application aRchive (WAR)</a>. It is slightly more complicated to configure but is very straightforward too. Finally, if you want to script against any version of JABAWS or are interested in writing your own client, the <a class="reference external" href="client.html">JABAWS Command Line Interface (CLI)</a> client is what you need.</p>
