  <h2>What is single sourcing?</h2>
  <p>
    Application vendors are increasingly required to provide both desktop and web
    clients for their customers. But desktop and web applications are  based on
    very different technologies which generally demand different programming
    paradigms and skills that make it impossible to reuse code. Specialized
    development skills and implementing the same functionality more than once
    increases the cost of production without in fact, adding new value to the
    application.
  </p>
  <p>
    The Rich Ajax Platform (RAP) was designed to tackle exactly these problems for
    the Eclipse world. RAP allows Java and Eclipse developers to reuse their
    existing skills through a Java-based development model for web-clients.
    Furthermore, RAP maximizes code reuse by including the largest-possible
    web-enabled subset of the Rich Client Platform (Eclipse's technology on the
    desktop).

  <h2>Single Sourcing guide</h2>
  <p>
    In order to develop fully single-sourced bundles for Eclipse RCP and RAP it is
    necessary to follow certain practices. This paper describes different patterns
    and refactorings to allow single sourcing of applications for both runtime
    platforms. All of these patterns have been discovered during single sourcing
    various applications in the Eclipse.org runtime space and tooling space.
