 Now, there's a number of different ways that we can actually build our Docker images. Maven is a very popular build tool for building your Java projects such as Spring Boot, so it's widely used in the enterprise. We can also leverage that in a Docker context as well, so we're going to go in and look at adding in a plugin to Maven to help automate our build. So if we are getting into a CICD type environment, having a common build tool capable of producing our artifacts, not only just the Spring Boot jar, but an actual Docker image directly from our build is going to become very important. In this section of the course, I'm going to show you exactly how to configure Maven to produce Docker images.
