Java workflow for multiple files

1. Compile Java Source Code
   • Use javac to compile your .java files into .class files.
2. Package into a JAR File
   • Use the jar command to package your compiled classes and resources into a JAR file jar cf example.jar -C <path-to-compiled-classes> .
   • This results in a JAR file named example containing the contents of the specified directory
3. Execute
   • Run your application JAR with java -jar example.jar
