Enterprise Gradle
This talk from the father of Gradle introduces you to the powerful concepts of Gradle through many real-world examples that are demonstrated live: advantages of declarative over imperative build systems, convention over configuration without rigidity, task definitions and dependencies, the benefits of plugins, deep multi-project support, runtime optimizations through partial builds, harvesting existing functionality through Ant and Maven integration, build migration and upcoming advanced enterprise features like parallel and distributed builds. Hans Dockter demonstrates some of the innovative goodies that come with Gradle out-of-the-box, like smart incremental builds, the Gradle Daemon, the Gradle Wrapper and also shows many of the new features like Eclipse integration, Sonar integration, C/C++ support and the new advanced repository cache management. By the end of the presentation, you understand how Gradle helps to elegantly solve the challenges that we face in our daily enterprise builds.
