## The Application class

The `org.eclipse.escet.common.app.framework.Application<T>` class is the main class of the application framework. All application should inherit from this abstract class. The generic parameter `<T>` is further explained in the section about the I/O framework.

The next sections introduce the specific parts of the application framework. After that, you’ll find a section on how to implement your own application, using the application framework.
