Such a concise and to-the-point video. Probably the best video I have watched on this topic.

[smikkelbeer]

Thank you, this was a lifesaver. For whatever reason, my university decided to completely skip explaining Maven before explaining Spring.

[nitiniit]

Great tutorial, sort of one stop shop to revise maven concepts quickly before the interviews and also brush up after every few months when need to get back to basics to nail down more technical stuff around maven.

[xpluiz]

That's a understandable, pratical and simple example from how to use maven. Congrats keep the excelent work!!

I’m still new to development and have been branching out on my own in addition to my classes and I kept running across maven but didn’t understand what it did. It became unavoidable when I committed to spending the next month trying to learn spring boot. Your explanation has made it so clear and simple to me and helped my growing understanding as a programmer. Thanks

Great tutorial.
Just quick points for everyone.

In multimodule project we can see
<dependencyManagement> and <pluginManagement>

the difference from normal <dependency> and <plugin> tags is

- dependency/plugin inside management tag are managed by parent but are not inherited by children implicitly. Child need to explicitly define the dependency/plugin in their pom.xml but can omit things like etc. which will be managed by parent.

This helps in proving the dependency to the module which needs it.

very clear tutorial, thanks so much. i like how you not only tell us what the most important parts of maven are, but also tell us WHY they're important. for instance, you mentioned that the pom.xml is important, gave an explanation of what it does, and then told us that since all maven projects have pom.xml, it helps with standardizing projects. thus, we can expect most maven projects to look more or less the same in structure. very useful tutorial.

Marco thanks a lot for this comprehensive tutorial.
Im hoping to learn SpringBoot and this has been a great tutorial about java package management.

Keep up the good work.

[inkastraredbrother]

The smoothest and the clearest explanation I've ever seen. Thanks, man)

[nfdgrnv]

The clearest explanation I've ever seen. Thanks

[Jodlight]

Really good to explain and describe new things to people! You're doing an excellent job here!

[ibrvvrr]

Really good. Now I am learning Spring MVC on Selenium Express channel to understand Spring MVC and start from Spring Boot... by your course appeared several days ago. Thanks!

[andriihaidychuk]

Thank you for the short and very useful explanation. It would be good to have continuation of Maven topic with more advanced stuff

[neblintysla]

WOW, thank you for such concise and clear explanation, great job! 👌🏼👌🏼

[lukezeches]

This was super helpful, I've always put off learning about Maven and now it seems way less daunting

[owaistnt]

Thank you. I understood this time finally. I would love to explore more on Maven. Recently I am supposed to push my Kotlin Multi Modules as shared libraries this video have given me those basics

[bekttf]

@MarcoCodes you are a funking ROCKSTAR! I finally not only understand what maven does but know how to get the thing working. Just ran my first test thanks so much!!!!
