How to revert a Project Facets convertion in Eclipse?

Question

I have a Java 8 project for Desktop, in Eclipse. Following instructions to fix another problem, I right clicked on my project and Properties -> Project Facets and I checked the Dynamic Web Module. Now I'm having some problems with the project and I'd like to reverse the actions I've taken. How do I get the project back to how it was before that change I made?

You have to edit the .project in your repo project and do the following:

• Remove the unwanted buildCommand entries.
• Remove the unwanted nature entries.
• Then restart your eclipse or close open your project.
