Creating a new ES software project

An Education Systems (ES) project will typically consist of 2 Maven artifacts. These Maven artifacts are:

• Only one Maven WAR artifact which contains all the WEB facing (i.e. jsp's, controllers, css, js, ...) components of the ES project.
• At least one Maven JAR artifact which contains all the support (i.e. services, daos, hibernate mapping, ...) components of the ES project.

To assist the software development teams, 2 Maven project templates (for a Maven war artifact and a Maven jar artifact) have been developed.

The following are the instructions on how to use the templates to create and customize an ES Maven WAR or Maven JAR artifact.
