title: Why IntelliJ is showing Dependency 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.25' not found?
body: <p>I have added slf4j dependency from mvn repository.</p>
  <p>My pom.xml is given below after adding that dependency :</p>
  <pre><code>    &lt;?xml version=&quot;1.0&quot; encoding=&quot;UTF-8&quot;?&gt;

              &lt;version&gt;1.7.25&lt;/version&gt;
              &lt;scope&gt;test&lt;/scope&gt;
          &lt;/dependency&gt;
  
      &lt;/dependencies&gt;

  <p>After adding this dependency in my project, it is giving an error saying that:</p>
  <pre><code>Dependency 'org.slf4j:slf4j-simple:1.7.25' not found
  </code></pre>
  <p>By the way, I am using <strong>IntelliJ IDEA</strong>. So, how to resolve this issue ?</p>
