Correct, good catch. As you have noticed by now the build has
undergone significant changes and the docs needs some close attention.

The "client" is an infrastructural component just like the "server".
When you start the server-allinone.jar" that actually contains the
"client". This is for convenience as they can also be deployed
independently. What you are looking for is a "target".

$ cd ../target
$ java -jar target-jar

Now in the right column of the UI you should see a "defaultTargetId"
appear which means your target is running and ready to receive
deployment packages.

Bram
