Yep - once I got beyond 'EJBs' and other JavaEE stuff and eventually to Kotlin life has been a joy. Maven can be bewildering but to me that's the price of flexibility and I've learnt to deal with it.
I love JavaScript too - but for front-end stuff.
- snuxoll 8y agoFor all the complexity that you can have with Maven, a large majority of projects can get away with nothing but a <dependencies> section and maybe a plugin or two. The one thing it does right that no other build tool I've used has managed to reach is make projects adhere to a fairly rigorous standard, once you understand the various phases to a maven build and the basics of a POM you can pick up any project and get started fairly quickly.
