# IzPack overview

## What it can do for you

IzPack is a powerful software installers generator for the Java[tm] platform. It uses a very modular architecture that lets you make the installers work as you want, not as the software wants it to work. It is also possible to extend it to suit your needs since it has been designed with this purpose in mind from the start.

## Package once, install anywhere

The installers generated by IzPack are independent of the target operating system. It has been running successfully on Linux/i386, FreeBSD, Solaris, MacOS X and Win32. All it needs is a Java[tm] Runtime Environment.

## Cool licensing

IzPack is published under the terms of Apache License Version 2.0.
