+ Note the <packaging>  element - this tells Maven to build as a WAR. Change into the webapp project's directory and try:
+

+
+m2 clean:clean package

+
+ You'll see target/my-webapp.war  is built, and that all the normal steps were executed.
+
+ Now you can modify this webapp project and turn it into anything you need!
