Notes on using IntelliJ IDEA

I'm currently using IntelliJ IDEA 2016.2 (Ultimate Edition). To make this work with IntelliJ, follow these steps:

• After cloning, go to: File > New > Project from Existing Sources > Select the pom.xml file > Set 'Root directory' to the root of the project > Keep selecting Next with default options and close out of the modal.
• Go to: File > Project Structure > Project > Set 'Project language level' to the appropriate Java language level.
• While you're still in Project Structure, select Artifacts > set the 'Output directory' to: [PROJECT ROOT]/target/compare-property-files-1.0-SNAPSHOT > Check 'Build on make' > Click OK.
• Open Main.java > Right-click > Select Run 'Main.main()' or Debug 'Main.main()'.
• Open your browser and go to: http://localhost:8080
