Deploying just HTML, CSS webpage to Tomcat

There is no real need to create a war to run it from Tomcat. You can follow these steps

  1. Create a folder in webapps folder e.g. MyApp

  2. Put your html and css in that folder and name the html file, which you want to be the starting page for your application, index.html

  3. Start tomcat and point your browser to url “http://localhost:8080/MyApp”. Your index.html page will pop up in the browser
