Learn how to efficiently structure and build software projects with Gradle 7

What you'll learn
The fundamental Gradle concepts
How to structure Gradle projects - efficiently to work with and maintainable
Understanding the Gradle DSL (Kotlin and Groovy variant)
Gradle build configuration: Settings File, Build Files and Convention Plugins
Gradle build execution: Tasks, Task Inputs/Outputs, Task Dependencies
Dependency management: Scopes/Configurations, Repositories, Versioning
Configuring Testing with Gradle
Using Java to configure Gradle

Requirements
You should be familiar with IntelliJ IDEA and the programming languages (e.g. Java) for which you want to setup a project with Gradle. You do not need any prior knowledge about Gradle itself.
Description
Gradle is one of the most advanced build tools for Java and other JVM languages like Kotlin, Groovy and Scala.

In this course you learn how to structure your software project with Gradle to get the most out of it.

This course is hands-on. Together, we build up a project from scratch, learning Gradle features one-by-one. While we do this on the example of a Java project, the gained knowledge can be transferred to any kind of software project built with Gradle.

Whatever automation task you would like to tackle: This course is for you to unlock the full power of Gradle.

No prior Gradle knowledge is required and you learn the latest best practices of Gradle 7 and beyond.

The video instructions are packed with information. To follow along, you will likely pause the videos regularly to explore the example and make sure it works for you. You should plan in ~3 times the duration of a video to work through the corresponding lecture.
