What is this course about?
This course is a no-nonsense introduction to getting started with Maven.
In this course we look at the Maven build tool which is the number one industry standard currently for creating Java applications. By concentrating on practical hands-on demonstrations, you'll see first hand how Maven works and from there develop the confidence to be able to use it independently to build your Java projects at home, college or in the workplace.
Whereas many courses will be presentation-style, this course is unique in that it demonstrates concepts "at the commandline" with videos that explain what Maven is doing and how it is doing it. In this way, you'll develop an understanding of the nuts and bolts of the tool and be in a position to develop effectively with it afterwards. This approach also means you're more likely to be able to more effectively troubleshoot any problems you may encounter by applying this knowledge from first principles.
It's a beginners course, although has some useful content for those already familiar with Maven. But to get maximum value from the course, you should really be a beginner with the tool. Maybe you've started a new job where they use it to build their applications, or you're learning industry-standard tools to better place you ahead of the competition.
Ultimately, by unlocking the mechanics of how Maven works in front of your eyes, you should be able to better build Java projects with the tool and have fun doing so!
I look forward to teaching you all about Maven inside! ;)
