We Part with the Marvin Sketch Applet Editor We removed the Java Applet structure editor from our website. Browsers have poorly supported Applets in corporate environments; they were slow to load and the IT industry, as a whole, has moved on to JavaSript and HTML5 technologies for a number of reasons. The newer and quicker ChemAxon’s Marvin JS editor has been available on our website for some time already and our users overwhelmingly favored it over the…
