Course Overview
Apache Maven: Secrets of Building and Managing Java and Java Spring Projects. Learn to use the Java Build Tool.
***NOW UPDATE in 2019!!***
For Java, why do we need a Build Tool like Maven, when we have an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) ?
Doing a Java build in an IDE is OK “Only” when it’s a simple project, for a single developer but once you go beyond that things start getting complicated and you'll need a build tool, such as Maven.
With complicated Java and Spring Framework projects you need to think about many more things. For example; other project dependencies, sharing code, version control etc...
This Maven Course, is an introduction to the widely used Java Build Automation Tool - Apache Maven and is completely hands-on. The course is easy to follow and uses Maven from both the command line and through an Integrated Development Environment (IDE).
You will learn how to install and set up the environment correctly, so you can use Maven from the command line and from the Eclipse IDE.
Learn how to use Maven in 'Real World Java' scenarios, so you can apply your new knowledge in 'Real World Java' projects, straight away!
Using examples you will learn about the Maven Repository, Plugins, LifeCycles, Customizing the LifeCycles and Transitive Dependencies. How to make the most of the Eclipse IDE and its m2Eclipse plugin to view and resolve project dependencies.
You will be up and running with Maven in only 4 hours!!

I really enjoyed this course. My programming habits are certainly going to change for the better now that I've taken it. The content is excellent as a reference after you have taken it.

Se profundiza bien en los temas. Se explican las características de Maven sin contaminarlo con explicaciones de otras tecnologías que poco o nada tienen que ver con el curso (Spring, Hibernate o JUnit), algo que hacen muchos otros cursos; en lugar de eso, utiliza ese tiempo en Maven.

Un problema es que los subtítulos hay veces que están muy mal transcritos o generados, lo que distrae bastante. Contribuye a que algunos temas no sean bien comprendidos. Por todo lo demás, me parece un buen curso.

I've used Maven for quite a while on my job, but without learning how it actually works. It's like learning to drive your car, and mastering it practically, without having read the mandatory theory behind it. The course has given me good insight into the dynamics behind the scene, and I understand far better what is actually going on, as that console keeps working when doing a Maven build. Alas, what the course lacks is exercises. Although it's tempting to be lazy and just watch through only videos, a course is never complete without exercises, therefore I can only leave maximum 4 out of 5. Nevertheless, it's a good introduction to Maven, to those who wish to understand it. Whether it's your first time using Maven, or you already have some experience with it through your work.
