If you have tried brew install maven and were greeted with missing gcc compiler and some other dependencies, an easier approach is to install sdkman and then run

sdk install maven

(or refer to the latest documentation for the right command)

sdkman is probably over-qualified for the job, but if you deal with multiple versions of SDKs, it's a pretty nice tool to have in general.
