To start simple Jetty server with Maven, download and install Maven, after that create and import project (in my case I created project in C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\myJetty\my-firstJettyTest) as I already explained here. Open pom.xml, and it should look like:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"

	</build>
		
</project>

Then open command line in same folder where your project is, and you can execute:

mvn jetty:run

After that in your browser write something like: 127.0.0.1:8080 - Jetty by default starts on port 8080

In my case, I have created one index.html file and I place it here:

C:\Users\myUserName\Documents\myJetty\my-firstJettyTest\src\main\webapp
