Here's a work in progress concerning how to get a working development version of JABA on your own machine.
+
Instructions for getting your development environment set up are at [[Development:JABAWS:GettingStarted]].
 
+
The first steps are:
+
 
+
# Sign up at issues.jalview.org.
+
#* This login is also used for the JABA and Jalview source repositories, and also the Jalview wiki.
+
# Take a look at the general coding guidelines on the [[Development]] page.
+
# Get set up with eclipse.
+
#* I use a third party eclipse system called 'Yoxos' - see [[Development:Yoxos]] to set this up.
+
# Get your JABAWS development environment set up.
+
## Make sure you have a full installation of Apache Tomcat7 on your machine.
+
## In Eclipse, you'll need to add a link to your tomcat7 installation in the 'Runtimes' section of the Servers preferences tab.
+
## Checkout the JABAWS code and import the project to eclipse.
+
##; i. clone the jabaws repository to somewhere on your laptop (~/git/ is always a good place to store git repos!)
+
##: git clone https://www.jalview.org/git/jabaws.git # this will take some time
+
##; ii. switch to the develop branch, which includes the latest version of JABAWS (we'll release this as JABAWS 2.1).
+
##: cd jabaws
+
##: git checkout develop
+
##; iii. Import the project to eclipse
+
##: Use eclipse's File->Import dialog to select the 'Import projects from git repository' wizard, and point it at your local version of the JABAWS repository. Import the project called 'clustengine'
+
##; iv. Try to run the project to launch a jabaws development server
+
##: In principal, you'll then be able to right-click on the new clustengine project and select 'Run -> Run on Server' to get JABAWS running on a local tomcat instance. However, you'll almost certainly need to fix some paths.
+
# Further reading: there are details on the jabaws-dev server that give some more {{http://www.compbio.dundee.ac.uk/jabaws-dev/man_server_dev.html background about jabaws development}.
