Introduction
Apache Maven is a popular build automation tool used primarily for Java projects. It helps developers manage project dependencies, build and package their projects, and manage releases.
Maven uses a declarative XML-based file called the “pom.xml” (Project Object Model) to manage project configuration, dependencies, and build settings. It uses a standard directory layout for projects, which makes it easy to understand the structure of the project.
