Good day, Aside from those that are already mentioned, you could do the following: 1. Package your 'resource' project into a war and use war-overlay ( see [1] ), or 2. Use maven remote-resources:bundle to create a 'resource' project ( which is a jar ), then use remote-resources:process to extract the resources ( see [2] ).
