Read this guide to get started on Pivotal Cloud!

If you are a Mac user, please follow installation instructions by reading the Mac OS section in this link:

  1. Once logged into your Pivotal Cloud account, visit here and install the Cloud Foundry CLI. You can follow the instructions on this page to understand how to use the CLI on your command prompt/terminal.

  2. To begin application development you are going to have to download the Pivotal Cloud Tomcat Server. You can see them on this link and we are recommended to select the Pivotal tc Standard Edition 3.2.1

  3. Once you open that folder on the webpage you will be prompted to select from a file to download. I would recommend that you select the .zip or .tar.gz file.

  4. When you try to download, you will be prompted to login/register. This will happen if you haven't editing your Pivotal Cloud account to include your name and organization information. Just select "login" and fill in the necessary information and you may go back to the page to complete your download.

  5. Once installed, download this. You can follow installation instructions if you need here.

  6. You should get ant builder set up on your computer. I highly recommend that you view this video tutorial to get Ant all set up. You will be getting a newer version but it's the same process!

  7. Now you can begin following the HelloWorld application guide here!

  8. When you write your Hello.java file you might have some errors with importing some libraries. This link should help resolve those issues!

More to come.
