I like Gradle... but I wanted to ask about Maven. Do anyone here knows about a Maven plugin to run a task watching for changes on the filesystem and rerunning it on this event? (like Gradle --continuous option)? Thanks!

here’s one: https://github.com/rzymek/watcher-maven-plugin

Thanks! I tried this: https://github.com/fizzed/maven-plugins and don’t work with the exec:java goal, I also saw the plugin you sent, but I haven’t tried. I’ll give it a go to check it out

the one I linked should work for your case because it accepts a full maven command to execute, while fizzed-watcher-maven-plugin only accepts maven phases
