# Step 1: Add Inrupt Java Client Libraries

If you have not already, open your Spring Boot project in your IDE.

* For Java, this tutorial assumes an initialized Spring Boot Web Maven Project.
* For Kotlin, this tutorial assumes an initialized Spring Boot Web Gradle Project.

## 1. Add inrupt-client-bom

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Java" %}
For Java, this tutorial assumes an initialized Spring Boot Web Maven Project.

To your project’s **`pom.xml`** :

1. Add the **`inrupt-client-bom`** dependency in the project’s **`<dependencyManagement>`** section.
2. Replace **`SUBSTITUTE_VERSION`** with the version to use.

<pre class="language-xml"><code class="lang-xml">
&#x3C;dependencyManagement>
   &#x3C;dependencies>
      &#x3C;dependency>
         &#x3C;groupId>com.inrupt.client&#x3C;/groupId>
         &#x3C;artifactId>inrupt-client-bom&#x3C;/artifactId>
<strong>         &#x3C;version>SUBSTITUTE_VERSION&#x3C;/version>
</strong>         &#x3C;type>pom&#x3C;/type>
         &#x3C;scope>import&#x3C;/scope>
      &#x3C;/dependency>
   &#x3C;/dependencies>
&#x3C;/dependencyManagement>
</code></pre>

For the latest version of **`inrupt-client-bom`** ,

1. Go to [Maven Central](https://central.sonatype.com/search) .
2. Search for **`inrupt-client-bom`** . Get the version for the package with **`com.inrupt.client`** namespace.
   {% endtab %}

{% tab title="Kotlin" %}
For Kotlin, this tutorial assumes an initialized Spring Boot Web Gradle Project.

To your project’s build script **`build.gradle.kts`** :

1. Add the **`inrupt-client-bom`** platform dependency.
2. Replace **`SUBSTITUTE_VERSION`** with the version to use.

<pre class="language-groovy"><code class="lang-groovy">
dependencies {
    //... additional dependencies
<strong>    implementation(platform("com.inrupt.client:inrupt-client-bom:SUBSTITUTE_VERSION"))
</strong>}
</code></pre>

For the latest version of **`inrupt-client-bom`** ,

1. Go to [Maven Central](https://central.sonatype.com/search) .
2. Search for **`inrupt-client-bom`** . Get the version for the package with **`com.inrupt.client`** namespace.
   {% endtab %}
   {% endtabs %}

## 2. Add Specific Module Dependencies

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Java" %}
To your project’s **`pom.xml`** file, you can either:

* Add the **`inrupt-client-runtime`** to include all recommended Java Client Libraries runtime modules; or
* Add specific Java Client Libraries modules.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="inrupt-client-runtime" %}
To include all recommended runtime modules from the Java Client Libraries, add the following dependency to the **`<dependencies>`** section in your project’s **`pom.xml`** file.

The recommended modules include those modules used to:

* Access your WebID,
* Perform read and write operations (both RDF and non-RDF resources) on your Pod,
* For the read of RDF resources, return the RDF resources in Turtle and JSON, and
* Use access requests and access grants.

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-runtime</artifactId>
</dependency>
```

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Specific Modules" %}
To your project’s **`pom.xml`** file, add the specific library modules in your project **`<dependencies>`** section. The following example includes the modules used to:

* Access your WebID,
* Perform read and write operations (both RDF and non-RDF resources) on your Pod, and
* For the read of RDF resources, return the RDF resources in Turtle and JSON, and
* Use access requests and access grants.

```xml
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-api</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-solid</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-core</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-okhttp</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-jackson</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-jena</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-openid</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-accessgrant</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-uma</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-vocabulary</artifactId>
</dependency>
<dependency>
    <groupId>com.inrupt.client</groupId>
    <artifactId>inrupt-client-webid</artifactId>
</dependency>
```

{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

Inrupt’s Java Client Libraries are composed of different modules . See [Library Modules](/sdk/java-sdk.md#library-modules) for the list of available modules and their description.

Once you have modified your **`pom.xml`** , reload your Maven dependencies if your IDE has not automatically done so.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Kotlin" %}
To your project’s build script **`build.gradle.kts`** , add the specific library modules as module dependencies. The following example includes the modules used to:

* Add the **`inrupt-client-runtime`** to include all recommended Java Client Libraries runtime modules; or
* Add specific Java Client Libraries modules.

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="inrupt-client-runtime" %}
To include all recommended runtime modules from the Java Client Libraries, add the following **`inrupt-client-runtime`** dependency. The recommended modules include those modules used to:

<strong>    implementation("com.inrupt.client:inrupt-client-runtime")
</strong>}
</code></pre>

{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Specific Modules" %}
You can add specific library modules. The following example includes the modules used to:

* Access your WebID,
* Perform read and write operations (both RDF and non-RDF resources) on your Pod,
* For the read of RDF resources, return the RDF resources in Turtle and JSON, and
