-We will focus on working in the top level directory which enforces default settings for all submodules, e.g. plugin settings and versioning of 3rd party dependencies. There is however a one special submodule, //openbeat-dist// which is the distribution module. From that location we have to invoke a special assembly command which creates a zip bundle with all dependencies and runnable scripts to launch OpenBEAT.

+Note: If all you wanted was to add new sources (NLP, generators, filters, speech/timing) you're not required to have a running development instance of OpenBEAT itself. Since the entire system is packaged and shipped with Maven, you're able to create a Maven project, entirely outside of OpenBEAT and set OpenBEAT as a dependency for your own project. Then you can create a jar from your project and add it to the executable described in the [[openbeat:userguide|user guide]].
