In order to compile the project, ensure that Maven is installed on your system. 
Then, from the jotserver/server folder, run:
mvn assembly:assembly

That should produce a runnable jar file at:
jotserver/server/target/server-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar

In order to run the server, run the runnable jar file with the current working
directory being jotserver/server. 

The web interface is located in the jotserver/web folder and can be run or 
deployed separately.
