Change your pom to something like this;
<groupId>Hi5S</groupId>
<artifactId>Hi5S</artifactId>
<version>0.0.1-SNAPSHOT</version>
<packaging>war</packaging>
<properties>
<project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
<maven.compiler.source>1.8</maven.compiler.source>
<maven.compiler.target>1.8</maven.compiler.target>
</properties>
<build>
<plugins>
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
<version>3.1.0</version>
</plugin>
</plugins>
</build>
<packaging>war</packaging>, tell maven your wanting to create a war
not a jar, using maven-war-plugin as a plugin as show above tells
maven your wanting to use a specific version of the maven plugin.
there are pros and cons to hard coding a maven plugin version. i
always do because i've been burnt on projects where they needed a
specific version but didn't define what version they needed and whilst
that version was the latest things worked correctly. But then you come
back to bug fixing that project 2-4 years later and the latest maven
plugin works differently.
dependencies are for external code that your java code depends upon
