+> **Important:** If your default runtime is below Java 17 and you're working with Gradle projects, the Gradle daemon will fail to start because modern Gradle requires JVM 17+. In this case, set `java.import.gradle.java.home` to a JDK 17+ path so that the Gradle daemon uses a compatible JVM independently of your project's compilation runtime. See the [Advanced Configuration](#advanced-configurationjdtls-initialization-options) section below for details.
+
+## Maven Configuration
+
+If your project uses custom or internal Maven repositories, you should point JDTLS at your Maven `settings.xml` so it can resolve dependencies:
+
+```jsonc
+"initialization_options": {
+  "settings": {
+    "java": {
+      "configuration": {
+        "maven": {
+          "userSettings": "~/.m2/settings.xml",
+          // Optional: global settings for system-wide configuration
+          "globalSettings": "/path/to/global/settings.xml"
+        }
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+Without this, JDTLS's embedded Maven will only resolve artifacts from Maven Central, which will cause unresolved dependency errors for projects using internal or private repositories.
+
 ## Advanced Configuration/JDTLS initialization Options
 
 JDTLS provides many configuration options that can be passed via the `initialize` LSP-request. The extension will pass the JSON-object from `lsp.jdtls.initialization_options` in your settings on to JDTLS. Please refer to the [JDTLS Configuration Wiki Page](https://github.com/eclipse-jdtls/eclipse.jdt.ls/wiki/Running-the-JAVA-LS-server-from-the-command-line#initialize-request) for the available options and values.
