A high level of competence in building simple or complex Java Multi-Project Builds.

In this course you'll learn about Gradle from the ground up. Starting with the corner stones of Gradle; the Domain Specific Language  or DSL,  the Domain Object Model and Lifecycle. Gradle relies heavily on what is called a Domain Specific Language or DSL. For along time Groovy has been Gradles go to DSL language. So it makes sense to start there and I provide you with a good understanding in how to use Groovy with Gradle, so you can get the maximum benefit from both. Later in the course I also take a look at using Kotlin as the DSL and what IDE support there is available for this amazing programming language.
