How to run the server?

Hi, sorry if this is an easy answer. I'm new to Android development and Android Studio. I downloaded your project, and I can compile both the server and client modules. But I am only able to run the Client on my Android device. How do I run the server on the PC? There is no option to do this in Android Studio.
