    How do I run my project on a server?
    Community Answer
    Assuming the server is running Linux, you'll want to export the project into an executable jar by right-clicking and selecting Export, then going through the wizard. After this, you can use something like WinSCP to transfer the file to your server. Then you can log into your server (make sure Java is installed) on putty, create a new tmux session (by typing tmux) and run the program (sudo java -jar *name*.jar).
