One of the nice things about Eclipse is that you can install plugins which increase its functionality.
One of the most popular plugin is m2eclipse - a Maven Integration plugin which makes it easy to use Maven inside Eclipse.
To install m2eclipse, get the URL of their 'Update Site' from the download section of their (m2eclipse) website. As of this writing, their update site URL is:
http://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/releases
In Eclipse, go to Help-->Install New Software-->Add..
Copy-paste the m2eclipse 'update site' URL in the location, and a friendly name (say m2eclipse) in the name field.
It will now list the 'Maven Integration for Eclipse' plugin.
Select the plugin and click 'Next' to follow the installation wizard.
You may need to restart Eclipse once Maven plugin is installed.
