I haven't looked at it in a while, but what I found was that the wiki documentation was at least a little bit incomplete and out of date. Starting a new Maven project is very easy. Converting from Fluffy Bunny is only marginally trickier, but it's usually pretty obvious when you got something wrong, and you can always start again. I've used Hugi's Gist instructions above many times. Here is my marginally different version: https://gist.github.com/paulhoadley/cd15b90c94eb8c640fddd9ac3fbbc6dc <https://gist.github.com/paulhoadley/cd15b90c94eb8c640fddd9ac3fbbc6dc> > But if you give it a try, I (and others) are very happy to help along the > way, both here on the list and on Slack.

Just off the top of my head: * Proper dependency management rather than trusting the JAR-soup in the frameworks. * Enforced semantic versioning on your projects. * Massively simplified CI: throw away all those Jenkins environment setup scripts and just use a Maven project. * Civilised artifact management with something like Artifactory. -- Paul Hoadley https://logicsquad.net/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/logic-squad/
