In the Tools category, Gradle is "Adobt", while Maven is on "Hold". You can read the full report but I'll exert the relevant section:
"Language-based build tools like Gradle and Rake continue to offer finer-grained abstractions and more flexibility long term than XML and plug-in based tools like Ant and Maven. This allows them to grow gracefully as projects become more complex."
They had a more elaborate explanation in previous editions.
- pjmlp 13y agoIn many enterprises we work for, Maven is still in the "to adopt" phase. Having said this, I am also an Ant guy for simple projects. Too many scars from an Ant -> Maven migration. All pom.xml files ended up more complex than the original build.xml files, as Maven did not have proper support for the way the build was working before.
