Unfortunately, Henderson Library computers do not come with Maven pre-installed. Despite the ability to install extensions in visual studio code and create Maven-based projects. In order to use Maven follow this guide:

  1. Download Binary zip archive at maven.apache.org.
  2. Unzip it to where you want.
  3. Under the bin file, locate "mvn.cmd" and "Copy as Path". As long as you get it's FULL directory.
  4. Go to Visual Studio Code's settings and search "maven.executable.path".
  5. Paste directory into the box and remove quotation marks if necessary.

All of the features of Maven can now be found in the Explorer window under the "Maven" drop-down menu.
