JAR File

JAR File (Java ARchive) is a file format used to distribute a collection of Java classes, metadata, and resources. Jar files are essential for packaging Java applications. Think of it as a container that holds all the parts of a digital mechanism so they can be easily transported and used without missing pieces.
