📦 How This Project Was Created

Create a new Maven project from terminal:

mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=com.my.app -DartifactId=myapp -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-quickstart -DinteractiveMode=false

• groupId: your package name
• artifactId: project folder name
• archetypeArtifactId: use Maven's built-in quickstart archetype

You get a ready-to-run Java skeleton in myapp/! 🎉
