Alfresco Share is a Spring Surf web application that connects to the Alfresco content repository via web scripts. The application implements the functionality of the document collaboration system with a simple user interface, providing users with the ability to search full-text on the repository content, view documents in the browser, use content in organization's business processes, and publish content in social networks. For a user, the Alfresco Share interface is a set of sites (groups) with a library of documents on a specific topic, wiki pages, links, blogs, and a forum.

The instruction from Jelastic.com ends with the deployment of the web-explorer interface; however, the web-explorer interface is currently not recommended for new developments and is hardly supported. Instead, it is recommended to use
Alfresco Share.
Installing Share on Jelastic.com Cloud turned out to be rather trivial. It is only necessary to perform one small trick.
