Maven archetypes are like templates for projects. An archetype makes it easy to generate a project quickly. By using an archetype you can be sure that your project has the correct structure. An archetype readily defines typical dependencies such as a dependency to a Magnolia webapp. The Magnolia archetype catalog provides examples for various types of modules.
