Templates

You can add custom project templates by various means.

  • The easier path is to create a genapp template and place it under ${maven.local.home}/templates directory. The genapp project wizard will pick that up along with the properties you define.

  • If you want more freedom on the UI side of the project wizard, check the Wiki pages for details on how to create and add your own templates. Any submissions are welcome.
