How to get a list of Maven commands and options? I have installed it on my Windows computer.

You can run the "mvn -h" command to get a list of Maven commands and options:

fyicenter> apache-maven-3.5.4\bin\mvn -h

If you are on a Linux computer, the "mvn" command should look like this:

fyicenter$ ./apache-maven-3.8.7/bin/mvn -h

...

⇒ "mvn archetype:generate" - Generate Maven Project

⇐ "mvn -v" - Verify Apache Maven Version
