Apache Maven IDE Integration

All popular development environments for the Java platform and beyond support Apache Maven with numerous features out of the box. The following list iterates popular IDEs in alphabetical order:

Eclipse IDE - M2Eclipse

M2Eclipse is the official Eclipse project for Maven integration for the Eclipse IDE.

Features include:

Launching Maven builds from within Eclipse
Dependency management for Eclipse build path based on Maven’s pom.xml
Resolving Maven dependencies from the Eclipse workspace without installing to local Maven repository
Automatic downloading of the required dependencies and sources from the remote Maven repositories
Wizards for creating new Maven projects, pom.xml and to enable Maven support on existing projects
Quick search for dependencies in remote Maven repositories

Integration with other Eclipse tools, such as WTP, AJDT, Mylyn, Subclipse and others.

M2E dynamically integrates with your Maven projects with Eclipse while you make changes in the IDE. As you change dependencies, or configurations of Maven plugins in your POMs M2E, will synchronize the Eclipse workspace with those changes.
