Time for action – configuring Maven on STS

We learned how to configure Tomcat on STS. Similarly, to build our project, STS will use Maven. But we have to tell STS where Maven has been installed so that it can use the Maven installation to build our projects. Let's take a look at how we can configure Maven on STS:

  1. Open STS if it is not already open.
  2. Navigate to Window | Preferences | Maven | Installations.
  3. On the right-hand side, you can see the Add button, to locate Maven's installation.
  4. Click on the Add button and choose Maven's installed directory, as shown in the following screenshot:
