Jetty/Tutorial/Jetty and Maven HelloWorld

Introduction

Apache Maven is a software project management and comprehension tool. Based on the concept of a project object model (POM), Maven can manage a project's build, reporting and documentation from a central piece of information. It is an ideal tool to build a web application project and such projects can use the Jetty/Feature/Jetty Maven Plugin to run the web application in development mode.

Maven can be used both to build embedded jetty appliations and standards based webapplications.
