+> Apache Maven.
+> Tool for building and managing Java-based projects.
+
+- Compile a project:
+
+`mvn compile`
+
+- Compile and package the compiled code in its distributable format, such as a `jar`:
+
+`mvn package`
+
+- Compile and package, skipping unit tests:
+
+`mvn package -Dmaven.test.skip=true`
+
+- Install the built package in local maven repository. (This will invoke the compile and package commands too):
+
+`mvn install`
+
+- Delete build artifacts from the target folder:
+
+`mvn clean`
+
+- Do a clean and then invoke the package phase:
+
+`mvn clean package`
+
+- Clean and then package the code with a given build profile:
+
+`mvn clean -P{{profile}} package`
+
+- Run a class with a main method:
+
+`mvn exec:java -Dexec.mainClass="{{com.example.Main}}" -Dexec.args="{{arg1 arg2}}"`
