Generates an application file. An application file is a single executable file containing your entire application, it's all you need to distribute or run the application. Technically, an application file is a Bash shell script with an appended executable jar file. You can invoke it directly or you can pass it as an argument to java -jar. You can rename it without breaking the application.
