=== Try what you'll build

The `finish` directory in the root of this guide contains the finished application. Give it a try before you proceed.

// tag::runCommand[]
To try out the application, first go to the `finish` directory and run the following Maven goal to build the application and deploy it to Open Liberty:

include::{common-includes}/os-tabs.adoc[]

[.tab_content.windows_section]
--
[role='command']
```
cd finish
mvnw.cmd liberty:run
```
--

[.tab_content.mac_section]
--
[role='command']
```
cd finish
./mvnw liberty:run
```
--

[.tab_content.linux_section]
--
[role='command']
```
cd finish
./mvnw liberty:run
```
--

After you see the following message, your Liberty instance is ready:

[role="no_copy"]
----
The defaultServer server is ready to run a smarter planet.
----
// end::runCommand[]
