Meecrowave is a development enabler and simplifier thanks to its classpath deployment. However it is
still a plain Apache Tomcat and you can deploy existing webapp you developed with no particular constraint.
From now on, we will assume you have a Servlet or Spring webapp `myapp.war`.
== Deployment with a Meecrowave bundle
This part assumed you built a bundle with link:../meecrowave-maven/index.html[Meecrowave Maven Plugin]. It gives
you a zip which has a tomcat layout once exploded:
[source]
----
.
|- bin
|- conf
|- logs
`- lib
----
If you didn't package a webapp at bundle time you can create a `webapps` folder in this layout and add your war inside.
Then to launch this war you can either use a `server.xml` in `conf` and add as in any Tomcat your `<Context />` in it
or you can launch it directly using:
[source,sh]
----
./bin/meecrowave.sh run --webapp=webapps/myapp.war
----
== Deployment with the runner
If you prefer to use the runner you can deploy a war with the following command:
[source,sh]
----
java -jar meecrowave-core-runner.jar --webapp=webapps/myapp.war
----
== Going further
You can find more information about deployment checking out the link:cli.html[CLI] documentation
which presents all options of the several ways to launch Meecrowave.
