# Tomcat and Jetty support in VS Code |
|
|
|
|
|
Although Visual Studio Code is a code editor-centric development tool, we know that for certain Java workloads, server integration is very useful. With Visual Studio Code, you can find extensions for popular application servers, for example [Tomcat](http://tomcat.apache.org/) and [Jetty](http://www.eclipse.org/jetty/), which are helpful when working with those servers locally. |
|
|
|
|
|
For [Spring Boot Dashboard](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=vscjava.vscode-spring-boot-dashboard), see [Spring Boot in Visual Studio Code](/docs/java/java-spring-boot.md). |

|
## Tomcat |
|
|
|
|
|
With the [Tomcat](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=adashen.vscode-tomcat) extension, you can manage all your local Tomcat servers within the editor and easily debug and run your `war` package on Tomcat and link Tomcat into your workspace. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
You can also create a new Tomcat server from the explorer using the **Add** button and run a `war` package on it. You can also create the server during the deployment. |
|
|
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
|
|
For running and debugging a package, you can right-click a server to select a `war` package to debug. More details could be found in the [GitHub repository](https://github.com/adashen/vscode-tomcat) of the [Tomcat](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=adashen.vscode-tomcat) extension. |

|
|
|
## Jetty |
|
|
|
|
|
The [Jetty for Java](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=SummerSun.vscode-jetty) extension for Visual Studio Code makes it much easier for you to run and deploy your `war` package, operate your Jetty Server, and interact with your application within the editor. |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
* Add Jetty Server from download directory |
|
|
* Start/Restart/Stop/Delete Jetty Server |
|
|
