git clone [email protected]:jasonewall/example-ivy-app.git
cd example-ivy-app
ivy run jwol.example.Blarg
$ ivy run jwol.example.Blarg

The ivy-cli downloaded all project dependencies found in ivy.xml to your ivy cache, automatically compiled your project (ensuring all dependencies are in the compiler classpath), and then started the main class denoted by jwol.example.Blarg (see Blarg.java). The argument passed in to ivy run can be any fully qualified class name that defines a Java entry point method.
