How to Build and Start the Project

To build and start the Coffee Shop web app, you need to have the following software installed:

• Java 17 (or higher)
• Maven
• Git

We give installation instructions for Linux/Mac and the Windows for Linux Subsystem. Please ask your teaching assistant if you are using PowerShell or Command Prompt on Windows.

Step 1: Clone the repository

git clone git@github.com:ITU-DASYALab/introdb-coffeeshop.git
cd introdb-coffeeshop

Step 2: Create the database file

Create a coffee.db file and execute the statements in init.sql using DuckDB:

duckdb coffee.db < init.sql

Step 3: Compile the project via Maven

mvn compile

Step 4: Start the project via Maven

Step 5: Open the web app

Open your browser and navigate to: http://localhost:8080

Notes:

If Java is not installed, install Java:
