I have created a Spring MVC demo application to showcase the elegance and functionality of the framework. It is a simple application that utilizes Spring MVC 4 + Spring Data JPA + jQuery UI as well as many other useful technologies.
-
Clone the project from GitHub.
-
Navigate to the project directory and run the following from the command line:
$ mvn package
-
Open Eclipse in order to import the project.
-
File -> Import -> Maven -> Existing Maven Projects (Navigate to folder and import)
-
Right click your project, click Run as -> Run on server (Supposing you already have a Tomcat server setup locally)
-
Navigate to the following URL to access the application: http://localhost:8080/springmvc-demo
The admin username and password is admin/admin.
This will allow you to login and make changes.
Windows 7 64bit, Eclipse Java EE IDE Luna 4.4.1, Maven 3.1.0
