Use the latest Tomcat Version in the Eclipse IDE even if Apache Tomcat's Unsupported

You want to use the latest version of Apache Tomcat in Eclipse but it’s not supported in the Servers view. Well don’t give up. Here are a few little Apache Maven tricks you can use to build, compile, depoy and test your Jakarta Servlet and JSP applications on the latest version of Tomcat even if it’s unsupported in Eclipse.
In this Unsupported Tomcat in Eclipse tutorial, I’m using the 2020-09 version of the Eclipse IDE and Tomcat 10 so I can do Jakarta EE development. Well, Jakarta web development with the Servlet 5 API. Tomcat isn’t fully Jakarta EE compliant, nor is it even fully Jakarta Web Profile compliant, but it does have enough support for doing Jakarta Servlet 5 API examples.
