-- Run the server
+Our [Gradle build file](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-java/blob/master/examples/build.gradle) simplifies building and running the examples.
+
+You can build and run the Hello World server used in [Getting started](https://github.com/grpc/grpc-common) from the `grpc-java` root folder with:
+
 ```sh
-$ # from this directory
-$ ./run_greeter_server.sh &
+$ ./gradlew :grpc-examples:helloWorldServer
 ```
 
-- Run the client
+and in another terminal window confirm that it receives a message.
+
 ```sh
-$ # from this directory
-$ ./run_greeter_client.sh
+$  ./gradlew :grpc-examples:helloWorldClient
 ```
