Maven archetype quickstart with resources folder
maven
Solution
If you are frequently creating projects from quickstart but require a resources directory, then create your own custom archetype and install it to your repository (local cache or the one used by your team).
The source for the archetype, which you can check out anonymously and modify, is here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/maven/archetypes/trunk/maven-archetype-quickstart/
Problem
When I use Maven archetype quickstart, it does not create src/main/resources folder and I have to create it myself. Why is it like this? I want src/main/resources to be created automatically. Is there a better archetype for this?
