* '''Server'''<br>Server side in general. It might be a server accessible from the Internet (on-line case) or various distributed servers located, e.g., in schools (off-line case). See [[Platform_Team/Sugar_Network|technical pages]] for more details.

From the technical side, this level is represented by Server [[Platform_Team/Sugar_Network/API|application programming interface (API)]] and [[Platform_Team/Sugar_Network/API#Objects_model|objects model]] in particular.

* '''Client'''<br>This is what Network participants are interacting with. This is a software that let people get access to the Sugar Network and define how Sugar Network should look like from users point of view. User experience, that these clients provide, might be too different from a client to a client. Starting from a couple of elements in the already existing software's [[Wikipedia:Graphical_user_interface|GUI]] (when people even don't suspect they are interacting with the Sugar Network) and ending with clients that represent conceptual level as close as possible.
