1. What is Tomcat?
Tomcat is a free and open source Web application server launched by Apache . It is a lightweight application server and is commonly used in small and medium-sized systems and situations where there are not many concurrent access users.

2. On the computer desktop, right-click this computer -> select Properties -> click " Advanced System Settings ".
3. Click " Environment Variables " in Advanced System Settings -> Create a new system variable CATALINA_HOME , the value is the installation path of Tomcat -> Click "OK" to save.
4. Create a new system variable CATALINA_BASE , the value is the installation path of Tomcat -> click "OK" to save.
5. Add %CATALINA_HOME%\lib and %CATALINA_HOME%\bin to the path variable (Win10, if it is a Win7 system, remember to write an English semicolon first ; separate it).
6. After clicking "OK" continuously to save, start the tomcat service, enter "localhost:8080" in the browser, and the tomcat interface appears, which means the configuration is successful. It should be noted that Tomcat needs to install the JDK first.
