Installation

1. make sure you have installed a JDK (6 or 7) correctly
   • open a console and enter javac -version, that should print your java version, for example javac 1.6.0_37
   • you may have to add your Java bin folder to the PATH environment variable and open a new console window
2. checkout the project
3. go to the project folder with the console
   • check: dir (or ls on UNIX) should show you the folders app, conf, project and some more
4. then enter the command run or run.bat, this may take a while the first time because it downloads a lot of JARs, you may even think that it hangs
   • if this is the first time you run this script, check your firewall if it's blocking the download of libraries
5. you can view the application in the browser after it printed something like play - Listening for HTTP on port 9000...
6. open http://localhost:9000 in your browser
7. use Ctrl + D or Ctrl + C to stop the application
