How to combine Yeoman scaffolding with existing Java directory structure

Viewed 9983

In my existing web project the directory structure for the served html content while development with jetty is "myProject/src/main/webapp/"

Now, I want to integrate an angularjs project here. I've played a little bit with Yeoman.

If I'm scaffolding with yeoman, I'm wondering how I can integrate it into our existing dev and deployment structure. I suppose to use the main folder "myProject" to run yeoman scaffolding would be fine. Then I would get a "myProject/app/" diretory for all my frontend stuff. Should I instruct somehow (how?) my jetty server to use ".../src/main/webapp/" as an alias for the new app directory?

We use jetty mainly as a proxy for requesting the backend. Is there also a way to do a live reload similar to "yeoman server" in combination with jetty?
