The key to deriving the most value from a portal deployment is to aggregate data, content, and processes from existing applications, such as Domino. This provides users with custom views into the applications they need to do their jobs. In other words, the key lies in building portlets. However, building portlets can be a time-consuming process. With Portlet Builder for Domino, WebSphere users now have a new no-code option: using a portlet to build more portlets. This tutorial teaches you everything you need to know to get started, from downloading the code to creating and using your own custom portlet.

Prerequisites


System requirements

To complete the steps as demonstrated in this tutorial, you'll need:

  • WebSphere Portal version 4.1.2 or higher
  • Domino 5.x or 6.x
  • A sample database

Portlet Builder for Domino will be downloaded and installed in the course of the tutorial itself.
