The Asciidoctor Maven Plugin is the official way to convert your {uri-asciidoc}[AsciiDoc] documentation using {uri-asciidoctor}[Asciidoctor] from an {uri-maven}[Apache Maven] build.

The conversion can happen in 2 flavors:

. as a Maven plugin: AsciiDoc files are converted at full Asciidoctor power independently from Maven site,

. as a Maven site integration: AsciiDoc files are integrated with Maven reports, which comes with a few limitations (see below for details).

Full documentations is available in the {uri-docs}[USER MANUAL].

ifndef::env-site[] .Translations of the document are available in the following languages:

• link:README_zh-CN.adoc[汉语] endif::[]
