TomCat standalone

I recently installed and started using IntelliJ IDEA, a great Java IDE! This IDE has a JSP debugging feature and comes equipped with a plug-in to allow for JSP Debuggin within the Tomcat servlet container. This sounds good to me and I downloaded and installed Tomcat and intend to test the JSP Debugging feature soon. My question is: Can I use the Tomcat installation as a standalone webserver, and not even bother with Apache? I would intend on using index.jsp for my web source directories of any developed web apps.

Tomcat works just fine as a standalone webserver, thats what I have been using at www.wbrogden.com and I understand it is in use in many commercial sites. The latest version has pretty good management tools so you can turn your experimental apps on and off, reload, etc without interfering with the rest of the site.
