What is Jenkins Freestyle Project?

Hey Ian,

Jenkins freestyle project is a powerful thing that lets you configure any build job. It has a lot of user-friendly features with the best part being its expandability, which allows you to do anything with them. It uses the same Maven 2/3 plugins that are used by Maven to create custom build jobs and thus enables you to leverage all Maven 2/3 plugins.

Hope it helps!
