Maven dependencies
Hello! I would like to ask how I can find out what the groupId, artifactId and version I need to put in my maven dependency when I am looking for a particular dependency. Like sometimes I am looking for an answer to some question and stumble upon a stackoverflow post which uses some dependency from apache for example. when I go to the apache documentation for the class that is used there isn't really anything that indicates what I need to put in my pom.xml file. I could be wrong about this or just plain blind but this has happened too many times now and I usually resolve it with chatGPT but its starting to get quite annoying. For the sake of giving a particular example, say I want to use IOUtils from apache's org.apache.commons.io package. How do I add the dependency for that to my pom.xml?
