This project is a simple skeleton example for a Java REST Back-End application.
It contains one Entity (Note), and exposes that Entity using REST Web Services
This is Maven project, so all the library requirements are specified in the pom file and nothing else is needed.
The project is meant to run on a web server (I use tomcat)
It also requires a database connection where the objects will be stored and retrieved.
This database connection can be specified directly on the Tomcat server configuration and then set on the persistence.xml file.
...
Just clone the project and open it on NetBeans.
Update the persistence.xml file with the name of the DB Connection and hit run!
...
hit run on netbeans
go to localhost:8080 (or the port that is configured on the web server) and celebrate!
