Introduction

This is a guide to use the T1C-Js client for the T1C-GCL (Generic Connector Library). Trust1Connector is a product of Trust1Team in order to facilitate browser independent hardware communication from a web application with an unmanaged device. The web application serves as a mediator in order to implement business flows. A web application stays in control for service requests towards a central back-end, and service requests with an unmanaged device. The Trust1Connector consists of:

• T1C-GCL (Generic Connector Library): an one-time installer for OSX, Windows, Linux

• T1C-DS (Distribution Service for T1C-GCL): a secured back-end in order to distribute and manage running T1C-GCL instances

• T1C-JS (JavaScript client library): an optional JavaScript client library in order to facilitate the communication towards T1C-GCL and T1T-DS.

Additional plugins (community and private plugins) are in development. Additional client libraries for native applications are in development.

• not in need of a browser plugin

• based on official communication standards

• no additional software needed (for example no need of a Java virtual machine)

• small footprint (+-2MB)

• coops with multiple card readers (contact and contactless)
