• Change directory to the project root in your terminal (linux, mac) OR in your command line interface (windows PC)

    cd headstart

• build the application by executing the following command

    mvn clean package

• Run the application with the following command:

    mvn exec:java

This should launch a browser window with a login page. Use the following credentials to login;

    username: user@headstart.com

NOTE - This is just a default user that was used to bootstrap the application. if you need multiple users, you will have to include your own user registration workflow.

If you simply need to demo static users, just add them in the bootstrap phase by extending the functionality in com.quadbaze.headstart.lifecycle.Bootstrap.java class's initDefaultUserIfRequired() method.
