Running the application locally

There are several ways to run a Spring Boot application on your local machine. One way is to execute the main method in the org.kgonia.jetty.loom.showcase.SpringJettyLoomApplication class in the jetty-loom-spring-boot-simple-webapp module from your IDE.

If you are using RC version add --enable-preview do jvm arguments.

Alternatively you can use the Spring Boot Maven plugin like so:

mvn -pl jetty-loom-spring-boot-simple-webapp spring-boot:run
