How you can contribute

IFS-WSO2 Connector is a result of my curiosity to test the possibilities of integrating IFS with other systems and having some fun with java coding. It’s not a final product so don’t expect much from it but executing an SQL or PL/SQL code from a web service provide enough potential to develop complex integrations. I’m pleased to know your ideas and contribution to this project. Easiest way is to get in touch with our mail knakit.dev@gmail.com
