Apache Maven
A build tool for Java projects using project object models
Apache Maven is an open-source build automation tool primarily used for Java projects. It uses a Project Object Model (POM) to manage a project's build lifecycle, including compilation, testing, and documentation. Maven also facilitates dependency management and provides a central repository for project metadata.
Maven uses a declarative XML-based Project Object Model (POM) file to define project structure, dependencies, and build steps, then automates compilation, testing, and packaging accordingly.
