Java Maven - The Complete Course

Explore the Maven project structure and conventional configurations, showing how Maven creates a default folder layout (src/main/java, src/test/java, target) and how to install Maven on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

Install Maven on Windows and Linux by verifying Java and JDK 1.5 or above, setting JAVA_HOME, downloading and configuring Maven, and validating the Maven version.

Explore maven repositories—local, central, and remote—and how mvn downloads dependencies and plugins into the local repository, following the search sequence.

Explore the maven pom.xml, the project object model that defines dependencies, plugins, packaging, and artifact details used to build a jar or war.

Learn how to create a Maven project from the console using a quickstart, configuring groupId and artifactId, and packaging, then build and download dependencies to produce a jar.

Learn how to create a Maven project in Eclipse using the QuickStart archetype, set groupId and artifactId, and generate the pom.xml with dependencies and a jar in target.

Create a Maven project, configure artifactId and dependencies, and import it into Eclipse as a Maven project, then run the hello word to verify.

Explore the Maven life cycle, including the clean cycle and the site cycle, and learn how phases like validate and initialize guide build steps.

Create a maven web app project from the console and configure its artifact id and group id, then import it into eclipse and verify with a hello word app.

Import and convert a Maven project to Eclipse, resolve missing dependencies by updating pom.xml, fetch dependencies from the central repository, and run the web app to verify it functions.

Convert a dynamic web project to a Maven project in Eclipse, configure it, build and run on a server, and generate the war file with dependencies downloaded.
