I agree with [Dirk Herrmann's answer](https://software.codidact.com/posts/284979/286152#answer-286152) about this: > What if a question is beginner level? I would say: Someone should answer it. > Some of the beginner level questions on stackoverflow have received answers that explain things in wonderful ways. While your question seems trivial for a seasoned Java developer, the issue is not obvious for beginners. It happens that I am a .NET developer that toyed just a little with a Maven project some months ago. In .NET World (Visual Studio, Rider, etc.), dependencies are managed in a more automatic way and when adding a packet, all its dependencies are automatically added to the project. It was very strange when in Java it is pretty easy to miss some dependencies required by your dependencies. Not to mention that I had to often check the pom.xml file due to dependency-related errors. My suggestion is to keep the question as it might help other folks in the future.
