Sylwester Lachiewicz commented on MNGSITE-356:
----------------------------------------------
I checked the instructions and using the latest version - it looks like it
works correctly.
> Maven in 5 minutes - "mvn site" to be either elaborated or removed from intro

> Key: MNGSITE-356
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNGSITE-356
> Project: Maven Project Web Site
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Environment: Windows
> Reporter: Perry Moen
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: documentation
> Original Estimate: 1h
> Remaining Estimate: 1h

> Hello,
> The documentation for the [Maven in 5
> minutes|http://maven.apache.org/guides/getting-started/maven-in-five-minutes.html]
> eludes that one would be able to simply run mvn site from the command line
> and have it work out of the box, if they've been following the demo.
> Unfortunately, with out the maven-site-plugin updated in the POM this does
> not work.
> My suggestion would be to either quickly show where/how to copy paste a
> plugin and update the POM, or briefly mention what mvn site does, and link to
> the official documentation.
> Otherwise, remove the mvn site altogether from the maven in 5 minutes
> tutorial. A new comer to programming and maven might find this intro
> frustrating if they cannot get the demo to work with a simple follow along.
> I am new to programming myself.. I would have found it useful to know.
