In this initial part of the
pom.xml
file, we're inheriting from a parent Maven module. This
parent module defines the default configuration for Maven plug-ins as well as the location of
remote Maven repositories to use to download library dependencies.

artifactId
is the name of the project. It is also used for the name of the WAR file that is
created by the build unless you override it with the
finalName
element in the build section
of the POM. This artifact belongs to a family of packages defined by the element
groupId
.
<version>
<version>
2.0
</version>
</version>
The
version
element identifies the version of the project we are creating. Generally, this
version text is appended to the
artifactId
when Maven creates the WAR file, but you'll see
later that we have overridden this with the
finalName
element.

The
packaging
element tells Maven that this project is building a WAR file. Other values for
packaging could be
jar
, if we were creating a JAR, or
ear
for a Java EE enterprise archive.
