At

Maven

has

created

the

we

can

import

the

Launch

Eclipse

and

switch

over

to

the

Choose the "existing projects" option:
Now select the folder created by Maven:
When you click the Finish button, the project will be imported into the Eclipse workspace.
However; there are many errors. Maven expects that you will configure a classpath variable, M2_REPO, that points at your local repository; a directory in your home directory that stores all those downloaded JARs and other files. Open Eclipse's preferences panel and navigate to Java > Build Path > Classpath Variables:
Click the New button, and enter the new variable (you'll have to adjust this for your operating system and local paths):
Eclipse will ask to perform a clean build, and the errors will be gone once it has done so.
Running the Application inside Eclipse
The task is to set up Jetty to run our application directly out of our Eclipse workspace. This is a great way to develop web applications, since we don't want to have to use Maven to compile and run the application ... or worse yet, use Maven to package and deploy the application. That's for later, when we want to put the application into production. For development, we want a fast, agile environment that can keep up with our changes, and that means we can't wait for redeploys and restarts.
Choose the Run ... item from the Eclipse Run menu to get the launch configuration dialog:
Select Jetty Webapp and click the New button, then fill in a few values:
Make sure you clear the field labeled HTTPS.
You can then click Run and Jetty will launch (it takes only a few seconds):
Once you click Run, Jetty will start up and launch (it should take about two seconds).
You may now start the application with the URL http://localhost:8080/tutorial1/
