On this page you can download the compiled Java class files for JavaBoy, as well as the source code.
Source is available under the GNU general public licence, which can be found here, and is also included in the source archive.
Please note that a Java runtime environment is needed to run JavaBoy as an application, which is the preferred method. Links are provided here to the IBM Java Runtime Environment, which is recommended for good performance, although it is rather a hefty download. Make sure to download both files.
Sun's Java Runtime Environment can also be used, which comes in at a more reasonable 8Mb.
