    There is probably much more that could be covered, but I think this is the most important once you know the basics. If you are new to Maven, suggest starting with an introduction like this. The guide covers creating projects as well, but many modern frameworks have easier and better generators. Spring Boot have its own initializer website, and I've made a CLI version. Quarkus also have a nice web UI you can use to create new projects.
