Fastest way to learn Maven [closed]

What is the fastest way to learn maven? I am up to speed with it but can't keep up with its idiosyncrasies. Any idea?

How long does it take to learn Maven?

Can I learn Maven in 90 days? Yes, you can learn Maven online within 90 days.

Is it easy to learn Maven?

It's not hard to learn Maven. It is worth a developer's time to invest a few hours into playing with the build tool and mastering the Maven fundamentals, especially if the adoption of DevOps tools like Jenkins or Gradle are on the horizon.

Then, I would play with archetypes. They are quick ways of getting projects up and running. Even if you already have a project, playing with an archetype gives you a sense of what the conventions are and how things are layed out.

(If that link doesn't work, try the command mvn archetype:generate, and pick one of the archetypes from the list that seems closest to your real project.)

I also found that it just took a while for things to "click" since it is very different than ant or make.
