- reitanqild 10y agoIt has saved my life a few times. Compared to mvn or ant or something else or compared to not using a build system? Honest question. I'm trying to figure out if I have missed something when I dismissed Gradle last time.
- kitd 10y agoThere are a few plugins I have used around packaging and deployment. I found integrating and using them in Gradle much easier than Maven. I just honestly think it presents itself to the developer much better than Maven, esp as I said in conjunction with BuildShip. I have also done some C++ dev work with Gradle. It's not ideal, but having one build system that handles differing platforms was great.
- vorg 10y ago> I'm trying to figure out if I have missed something when I dismissed Gradle last time Which version of Gradle were you using last time? Gradle 3.0, released 3 months ago, offers Kotlin as the preferred language for scripting builds and writing plugins, instead of the ageing Apache Groovy which is still available for those who still need it.

- reitanqild 10y agoThanks! Thats good to know. Another thing: how is the speed compared to Maven 3?
