Maven is a build automation tool for Java. The Spring Boot Maven plugin provides various capabilities for developing/executing Spring Boot projects with Maven. In this article, we will take a closer look at this plugin. What is the Spring Boot Maven Plugin The Spring Boot Maven plugin simplifies the process of building, packaging, and running Spring Boot applications using Maven.  Some of the things that you can do using this plugin are: Build/package Spring Boot applications as executable JAR or WAR files. These files include all necessary dependencies, making it easy to deploy and run Spring Boot applications. Start an embedded application server (such as Tomcat or Jetty) and deploy your Spring Boot application on it during development and testing. Manage and resolve dependencies specific to Spring Boot, ensuring that you have compatible versions of Spring Boot libraries and other related dependencies. Simplify configuration management by setting Spring Boot properties directly in yo

Maven is a popular build automation and project management tool primarily used for Java projects. Java developers often run the maven clean install command to build Java projects. In this blog post, I will try to explain what the maven clean install command does. Let us break down this command.   Clean This part of the command tells Maven to clean the project. Cleaning a project means removing all the build artifacts (compiled classes, libraries, generated files, etc.) from previous builds. This ensures that you start with a clean slate before building the project again. It’s particularly useful to eliminate any potential issues caused by leftover artifacts from previous builds.   Install   This part of the command tells Maven to build and package the project and then install the resulting artifact(s) into the local Maven repository. The local repository is a local cache where Maven stores project dependencies and artifacts. When you use “install,” the project’s packaged artifact (e.g
