First of all you have to have m2eclipse plugin installed to effectively use Maven in Eclipse. Once you have it:

  • Create a new Maven project with File->New->Project...
  • Make sure "Create simple project.." checkbox is not checked
  • Select appropriate archetype from kindleit

enter image description here

  • Give your project an id and a group

After that it will be generated with proper structure and dependecies
