All projects provide both maven and gradle based builds to create the jars. The jars are self contained spring boot apps which you can start easily with e.g. java -jar router.jar. You will need Java 8 to run the jars.
If you are not used to Maven or Gradle, you may use the self-installing gradle wrapper. Just the check out the projects and run gradlew build (resp. gradlew.bat build on Windows) in all projects. This installs gradle and builds the executable jars. For your convenience the jars are available prebuilt in the releases.
You have to start all server in order to run the application. To access the shop, direct your browser to the router on http://localhost:9000.
