Building the CSS

The CSS is built using maven. When running the package command, the css should be compiled and minified.

Building the Javascript

1. Go to the home directory of the project
2. Run the below command.

npm run-script build

The output file is located at ./src/main/resources/static/js/main.js

Building the Project

You should think about this as two steps. There is a frontend and there is a backend. We need to compile everything for the frontend first, then we need to package those frontend components into the jar file where the backend resources will live. Our final product is a single package with all of our components for the frontend and the api.

npm run-script build

npm run-script build

This command will compile our frontend components.

mvn clean package

This command will compile our backend components.

npm run-script build;mvn clean package

You could do this and combine these steps into one.

npm install
mvn clean package

Running the Project
