Short url for java web application

I have an application that can be browsed into when i go to http://localhost:8080/application name/app/index.html#/home

I would like to be able to browse it when i just hit the server name e.g http://localhost:8080

How can it be done ?

When using tomcat, in web.xml you can add : 

<welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>app/index.html</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>

Then you can access it with :

http://localhost:8080/application_name/

This will only shorter the root page of your application, but I think this is the more important when you want to spread it.

After doing this you should take a look at :

Deploying my application at the root in Tomcat
