pom.xml is auto-generated when we create a maven project file. This is the project build and dependencies management file that contains information about the project version, plugins, and dependencies.
Use of pom.xml in Spring Boot
- Dependencies and Jar Management
- External Plugin Management.
- It provides the configuration details of the project.
- Manage the build or project versions
While we using a maven project, in that case, we do not need to download and add external jars one by one. Maven automatically downloads and adds the jar according to dependencies into pom.xml.
