What is an JAR artifact ?
the JAR file is the basic artifact for Java applications.
Under the hood, it’s essentially a .zip file with the .jar extension. It includes contents such as classes, resources, and meta information files.
What is a WAR file ?
WAR files are used for bundling Java web applications.
Along with classes and resources, WAR files can contain other JARs in the form of libraries,
JSP files,
Java Servlets,
as well as all types of static web files (HTML, CSS, Javascript, etc.)
WAR files must contain a WEB-INF directory
In contrast to JARs, WAR files cannot be run as standalone applications and we can only use them as components of another application, like a servlet container or an application server.
