Maven is a build automation tool used to manage Java projects through their build, reporting, and documentation lifecycles. It is based on conventions that define a standard directory structure and build process to enable building, reporting, and managing any Java-based project. Maven allows developers to reuse existing build configurations and dependencies and focuses on a project's logical structure over its physical structure.
