The previous chapter gave you a brief introduction to JEE and Eclipse. We also learned how to install the Eclipse JEE package and also how to install and configure Tomcat. Tomcat is a servlet container and it is easy to use and configure. Therefore, many developers use it to run JEE web applications on local machines.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Configuring Tomcat in Eclipse and deploying web applications from within Eclipse
- Using different technologies to create web applications in JEE, for example, JSP, JSTL, JSF, and servlets
- Using the Maven dependency management tool
