The webapp can be run from a bundled instance of jetty. The application will listen on port 8080 by default.
If you would like to run the webapp on a different port, you can add the "jetty.port" option in your maven command (e.g. mvn -Djetty.port=8181 jetty:run)

Code Block

$ cd fcrepo-webapp
$ MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx512m" mvn jetty:run
