, which cleans up the target directory by removing all generated files, usually before starting a new build.-P
is an argument used to specify a Maven profile.${profile}
is a placeholder that should be replaced with the actual profile name.package
is another Maven lifecycle phase that packages the project code into a distributable format, such as a JAR or WAR file.
