Directory structure

• <project-root> - run mvn package exec:java to compile and run the webserver
  • src - code goes in here
    • main
      • java - Java code goes in here
      • resources - files needed by the webserver that aren't code go in here
        • www/index.html - the homepage
        • www/static - any files put in here are served from http://localhost:8080/static/. So file named jquery.js will be accessible from http://localhost:8080/static/jquery.js.
    • test/java - Java unit tests go in here
  • docs - documentation goes in here
  • target - maven puts compiled code and jars in here
