Using Java Web Start does not require any Java on the backend
whatsoever. You can serve a Java Web Start app from a vanilla IIS with
no dynamic content at all. So, Tomcat itself has really nothing to do
with it all.

I don't own an Android device, but my understanding was that you can
side-load apps without having to go through any Marketplace/App
Store/Google Play. Is that what you are trying to do: side-load using
Java Web Start?
