Setting up, building, and deploying Java web applications can feel overwhelming without the right build automation tool. Maven simplifies this process by managing your dependencies, structuring your project, and automating your entire build lifecycle. In this text-based course, you will transition from Maven basics to deploying a fully functional Java web application, learning how to manage external libraries, structure multi-module projects, and prepare your application for modern deployment environments. What you'll learn: - Understand foundational Maven concepts, including the Project Object Model (POM), build lifecycles, and plugins - Manage project dependencies efficiently to avoid version conflicts and maintain clean builds - Structure a Java web application using standard directory layouts and archetype templates - Configure modern Maven plugins for compiling, packaging, and testing your Java code - Implement unit testing within your build pipeline using modern testing frameworks - Package your web application into deployable formats and explore container-ready deployment workflows You will start with core terminology and Maven installation before progressing through dependency management, project structuring, and preparing a web application for production deployment. This course is designed for beginner Java developers and aspiring DevOps engineers, with no prior Maven experience required.
