Visual Studio Code – Connect Java to MariaDB in VS Code

I need to connect to my database but I keep getting an error that says "driver not found".

I have added mariadb-java-client-3.0.8.jar jar file and it is still not working.

And this works pretty well on NetBeans, but I need to know how to fix that in VScode IDE. Do you know what I am missing?

import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.DriverManager;

public class App {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        try {
            Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/cpit305-project", "root", "");
            System.out.println("working");
        } catch (Exception e) {
            System.err.println(e);
        }
    }
}

The exception:

java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:mariadb://localhost:3306/cpit305-project
