Companies that contributed tooling that makes IGB more accessible to users and developers
The IGB team gratefully acknowledges JIDE Software, maker of graphical user interface components for Java. IGB uses components from JIDE Software to make the interface easier to use and more attractive.
We also thank EJ Technologies, maker of Install4J, which we use to create IGB installers for Mac, Linux, and Windows computers.
In addition, we thank Atlassian, which granted us a free license to use their Jira, Bitbucket, and Confluence products.
If you are considering purchasing or licensing any of these products, the IGB team would be happy to give you our honest (glowing) opinion. Feel free to get in touch - contact Ann at aloraine@uncc.edu.
