| <h2>Maven</h2> |
| <p>NetBeans IDE supports the Maven build system to help |
| you manage project |
| dependencies, builds, reports, and documentation. |
| Open, build, run, debug, profile, |
| and deploy your existing Maven projects, which can be opened |
| without an import procedure. |
| Wizards are provided for creating new applications based |
| on existing Maven Archetypes, the Maven |
| Repository browser lets you browse the content |
| of your local repository and |
| any registered remote repositories. Graphs show |
| direct and transitive |
| dependencies and identify version conflicts. |

| <h2>Ant</h2> |
| <p>The default NetBeans IDE project system is built directly on top of the Ant build system. All |
| of the project commands, such as "Build Project" and "Run File in Debugger", |
| call targets in the project's Ant script. You can therefore build and |
| run your project outside the IDE exactly as it is built and run inside the IDE.</p> |
| <p>You do not need to be familiar with Ant to work with applications in the IDE. You can set |
| all the basic compilation and runtime options in your project's Project |
| Properties dialog box and the IDE automatically updates the project's |
| Ant script. If you know how to work with Ant, you can customize a project's |
| Ant script directly or write your own Ant script for your project. |

| <h2>Gradle</h2> |
| <p> |
| A community-contributed plugin is available |
| for Gradle, the Groovy-based build system. The |
| plugin lets you open Gradle projects into |
| the IDE, create new Gradle projects, and invoke |
| Gradle commands in the IDE. |
