mvn archetype:generate -DgroupId=PROJECTPACKINGNAMEGOESHERE -DartifactId=PROJECTNAMEGOESHERE -DarchetypeArtifactId=maven-archetype-webapp -DinteractiveMode=false

IntelliJ Integration
mvn idea:idea -Dwtpversion=2.0
After the command our project will look and converted to that IDE structure, the below the folder structure since I am an IntelliJ fan the here is my folder output:
