A list of all *IOTA* JSON-REST API commands currently supported by JOTA wrapper can be found in the `Commands` enum
(see link:https://github.com/davassi/JOTA/blob/master/src/main/java/jota/IotaAPICommands.java[here] for more details).

JOTA java wrapper is being designed to be thread-safe and simplest as possible in order to be easily maintainable,
accordingly with the ongoing natural evolution of IOTA's API. All the boilerplate code for connecting to the node REST
interface has been eliminated using Retrofit.

In order to communicate with *IOTA node*, JOTA needs to be aware of your node's exact configuration. If you dont want to use the builder the easiest way of providing this information is via a `node_config.properties` file, for example:
