Suggestions to get your Maven project showing in the Java Projects view:

• Make sure you opened the folder that directly contains the pom.xml (File → Open Folder, not just a workspace file).
• Run Java: Import Maven Projects from the Command Palette to force re-import.
• Use Java: Clean the Java language server workspace (also via the Command Palette), then reload the window.
• Verify that the Maven for Java extension is installed and enabled alongside the Java Extension Pack.
• Open the OUTPUT panel, select Language Support for Java and Maven for Java, and look for import or indexing errors.
