How to properly run Java throwaway files in IntelliJ - Tips & Tricks

[@manu-singh]

Thanks a lot man, i was learning dsa in java for targetting my dream product companies. i was using vscode before but its output terminal leaves a lot to be desired so decided to switch to intellij idea but was shocked to discover that it doesn't outputs single java files and only builds complete projects. But now my independent java files are working perfectly fine by this little tweak. Thanks

before this I always had a project named Practice, I would open it, remove any exiting code and then test my new code.

Hi Marco, is there a way to create custom maven templates when starting a new maven project from Intellij? I would like to start project with predefined plugins (Ex. maven compiler 1.8+) and dependencies (Ex. Junit's 5 api and engine).

Hi Alexei, yes there is. Maven "archetypes". You can choose one when you create a new maven project in intellij or you can create them yourself, even though I can't describe that in this post :D
