VS Code Setup Help for Maven Web App and Apache Tomcat Server

Guys, I am learning Servlet, JSP, and Hibernate, and I want to build a project using them—a Maven Web Project. My plan is to first set up a Maven Web Project and then use JSP, Servlet, and Hibernate to build the project in VS Code. I am able to create the Maven Web Project using the maven-archetype-webapp, and I want to run this project on the Apache Tomcat server. Additionally, I want to see real-time changes—whenever I modify my index.jsp file or anything else, it should reflect immediately after starting the server. I have tried everything and watched 20+ videos, but I am still unable to properly set up or configure my Maven Web App with the Tomcat server.
