Apache Maven is a powerful software project management, build and comprehension tool build primarily for Java software projects. It is implemented in Java that makes it platform-independent.
The job of Build tools is to perform the compilation, testing, packaging and deployment of the final product. The advantages of performing these steps automatically instead of a human performing these steps is that the build is reproducible, faster and less error prone. Maven can perform these activities, e.g., create web sites, upload build results or generate reports. Maven also supports the creation of the initial folder structure for applications to make it easy to get started.
Focused on project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information.
Maven is used for projects build, dependency and documentation. It simplifies the build process like ANT, infact it's much more advanced. In summary, maven is a tool that can be used for building and managing any Java-based project. Maven make the day-to-day work of Java developers easier and generally help with the comprehension of any Java-based project.
