Post Body

so at the top of my serverApplication.java file I have the json import as import org.json.simple.JSONObject;

but it is giving it a red squiggily line...

I also added it as a dependency in y pom.xml as

<dependency>

        `<groupId>org.json.simple.JSONObject</groupId>`

        `<artifactId>JSON package</artifactId>`

        `<scope>json</scope>`

        `</dependency>`

it is saying import cannot be resolved

what am I doing wrong?
