The document introduces Layrry, an API and command-line tool for building modular Java applications using JPMS layers. It addresses some limitations with JPMS, such as only allowing one version of a module, by leveraging layers to isolate modules from one another. Layrry allows adding modules at runtime and avoids issues with non-exported package collisions. The document demonstrates using Layrry to launch a modularized application via the command line or a JBang script, and discusses future plans for Layrry including ready-made distributions and configuration options.
