Using Template

There are two ways to use the Solution Center Java Starter Project as a template when creating a new project or rebasing an existing one.

A. GitHub's "Use this template" Option

The easiest way to use this template is to use GitHub's "Use this template" option. This will automatically create a new repository from the template and allow you to clone the repository to your local machine.

Step 1

To begin using the Solution Center Java Maven Starter Project, simply click the 'Use this template' button on the GitHub repository page.

B. Manual Download

If you do not wish to use GitHub's "Use this template" option, you may manually download the template and take advantage of its features.

Step 1

To begin using the Solution Center Java Maven Starter Project, simply click the 'Download ZIP' option under the 'Code' button on the GitHub repository page.

Alternatively, you may download the template from the GitHub repository archive.

After the ZIP file has downloaded, extract the contents to a new directory on your local machine.

If you wish to use the template as a new repository, you may create a new repository from the extracted contents. Otherwise, you may copy the contents to an existing repository.
