    Java Development Kit (JDK) is the primary requirement for Apache Maven. So you need to install Java on your system. Make sure you have installed JDK, not JRE.

    java -version 
    
    Output:
    openjdk version "11.0.11" 2021-04-20 OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11.0.11+9) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11.0.11+9, mixed mode, sharing)

    If you don’t have Java Development Kit installed on your system. Visit Install Java on Fedora

    Step 1 – Install Maven on Fedora

    After verifying the java version on your system. Download the latest Apache Maven from its official download page or use the following command to download Apache Maven.

    wget https://dlcdn.apache.org/maven/maven-3/3.8.5/binaries/apache-maven-3.8.5-bin.tar.gz 
    

    Now extract the downloaded archive using the following command.

    sudo tar xzf apache-maven-3.8.5-bin.tar.gz -C /opt 
    cd /opt && sudo ln -s apache-maven-3.8.5 maven 
    

    Step 2 – Set Environment Variables

    As you have downloaded precompiled Apache Maven files on your system. Now set the environments variables by creating new file /etc/profile.d/maven.sh.

    sudo vi /etc/profile.d/maven.sh 
    

    Add the following content.

    export M2_HOME=/opt/maven
    export PATH=${M2_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
    

    Save the file content and close it.

    Now load the environment variables in the current shell using the following command.

    source /etc/profile.d/maven.sh 
    

    Step 3 – Check Maven Version

    Apache Maven has been successfully configured on your system. Use the following command to check the version of installed Maven on your system.

    mvn -version 
    
    Output:
    Apache Maven 3.8.5 (3599d3414f046de2324203b78ddcf9b5e4388aa0 Maven home: /opt/maven Java version: 11.0.11, vendor: Red Hat, Inc., runtime: /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-11.0.11.0.9-2.fc33.x86_64 Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "linux", version: "5.8.15-301.fc33.x86_64", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

      Hi, thank you for the very descriptive and helpful tutorial. I have a couple of questions:

      Does the final step in Task 3 means that I have to run the command every time I open a new terminal?

      I wan to use maven to build a java project so do I have to run this command every time I build the project again after changes?
