+* Dude! Where's my Eclipse
+
+** Pre-requisites
+   You will need a linux server with the following installed:
+   - tomcat :: This demo was prepare with tomcat-8.
+   - tomcat manager :: Used for deploying the your built application
+   - A web browser :: for accessing the tomcat manager
+   - git :: to access the project
+   - a text editor :: to fix any bugs you find (*Not* =eclipse=,
+                      because that's the whole point.)
+   - java 8 JDK :: to build code
+   If you develop on one machine and deploy to the other, then
+   *tomcat* and *tomcat manager* are to be on the system you're
+   deploying to, and the rest where you're developing.
+
+   If your development environment is not on the same server as the
+   *tomcat* instance, you'll need a copy of the file
+   =tomcat8-servlet-api.jar= on the same system as your java code.
+
+** Setting up
+   0. [@0] All commands assume a Linux environment. =${HOME}= refers
+      to the home directory of the user, and =${DEV_HOME}= refers to
+      where the git repository has been cloned to.
+   1. Get the code
+      : git clone https://gitlab.com/eibhear/javaBootcampNoEclipse.git
+      The repository is now in =${DEV_HOME}=. Change into it:
+      : export DEV_HOME=$(pwd)/javaBootcampNoEclipse
+      : cd ${DEV_HOME}
+   2. Make sure you're at the starting point:
+      : git checkout lesson-1
+
+** Lesson 1 -- compile the code.
+   
+*** Starting point
+    A clean git working area
+
+*** Goal
+    Java files compiled into class files
+
+*** Steps
+    0. [@0] Confirm you can access the java compiler:
+       : javac -version
+       If this doesn't result in a message like =javac 1.8.0_141=,
+       you'll need to find where =javac= installed and place it on
+       your =${PATH}=.
+    1. Change to where the code is:
+       : cd ${DEV_HOME}/source/java/org/gibiris/javaBootcampNoEclipse
+    2. Compile the files:
+       : javac *.java
+    3. Check the errors. If you see the message =error: package
+       javax.servlet does not exist=, then look at your =CLASSPATH=
+       setting, as dependend libraries are missing.
+    4. Fix your =CLASSPATH= and compile the java files:
+       : export CLASSPATH=/usr/share/java/tomcat8-servlet-api.jar:${CLASSPATH}
+       : javac *.java
+    5. If the successful, you will have the following additional files:
+       : ${DEV_HOME}/source/java/org/gibiris/javaBootcampNoEclipse/MyHelloWorldBean.class
+       : ${DEV_HOME}/source/java/org/gibiris/javaBootcampNoEclipse/MyHelloWorldServlet.class
+       If this is the case, move on to lesson 2:
+       : git checkout lesson-2
