I'm a pretty proficient Groovy developer, but what helped me a lot was actually browsing the API doc starting with the Project object. After that it was magic ✨

I had the same realisation after being android developer for 2 years, not really understanding gradle, life changing. It made me actually realise that all new tech frameworks at the end of the day boil down to "programs" and "code" just different way of implementing it

Awesome video! Another reason why gradle is so hard is gradle's documentation. It is AWFUL. It is both prolific and completely useless, only serving to make the reader feel confused and stupid. Your 5 min video is all a gradle newbie needs because, as you point out, we ARE developers. Thank you again!

I'm 1 min into the video and the moment you mention that gradle build script is just code is the insight, it also made me feel confident. For some reason it doesn't feel like so at first sight but you're right. Thank you Tom for helping out this newbie. Subscribed! ❤

I had so much difficulty with gradle's inflexibility that I went back to using "make". I use "make" for my C++ projects anyway so it was a no-brainer.

even makefile may be easier for me, or even the notoriously difficult assembly I can understand. But not the horrible way of building an apk form gradle and I was searching it from past 2 years. There is no support added for android apk (it says applicaton and never output to apk) while doing gradle init There is no easy way to add a damn function in build.gradle file or I don't know how to add new task that builds an apk or it just impossible to build apk using gradle or some crappy tools like android studio must be used that is just a big bloat for me

God tier video. I'm quite used to Gradle at this point, but I only actually understood what I was doing after trying to build a Plug-in. I encourage you all to try, it's pretty fun and you end up knowing a lot about Gradle in general. Including the Project object.

As someone (relative) new to java and I just saw a bunch of gradle-scripts I never created one by my own. Seeing a gradle-script as code and not as a config file, was the missing link for me. Until today I always tried to see the syntax like a kind of YML file. Thanks for making this short video.

You have to wonder at the benefit of Gradle using hipster syntax. Yes, in Groovy you can pass function parameters without parentheses. But how many more devs are confused rather than helped by that syntax?

Thanks Tom. Very nicely done. I am old enough to remember the first version of Gradle. At the time, with Maven (and Ant before that) it generated a lot of hope and promise as a replacement to the latter. Unfortunately, that promise never got realized...as the authors mindest imo was/is? convoluted...imagine our disappointment in _actually wishing for Maven back! However, never say never, and your video is a stepping stone to proving myself as being an old fuddy duddy ;=)

Yeah thinking about in a "it's just code written declaratively with a bunch of callbacks" does open my "third eye" kinda lol. Btw, anyone else on Android Studio notice that Groovy DSL gradle doesn't actually show any documentation when you hover over its method? My jaw dropped when I saw the docs in the youtube video, that never appeared to me, not sure if it's an Android Studio bug or maybe I misconfigured the IDE somehow.

If only the IDE integration actually worked most of the time... In reality you usually get countless warnings that can't be solved and method references that can't be CTRL+Clicked, because they come from a plugin, and the plugin often isn't on the recognized classpath.
