How to run an eclipse project without eclipse

I don't have eclipse installed. I have a Java project with an eclipse folder in it.

Can I simulate pressing the Run button in eclipse, without installing eclipse.

I want to run this project.

I am on macOS. It's a pretty huge project, I am not sure how to compile the source correctly. I also don't know what external dependencies this project has.

Without an external build tool to help with building the application like Gradle or Maven, you're going to have to download a copy of Eclipse and run it from there. You'll also need to take the time to ensure that you convert your project to either a Maven or Gradle-based project so that you can build it independent of what IDE you're using.
