Summary

In this chapter, we started with a brief introduction to Gradle. Then, we looked at manual installation and also installation via package managers. We also learned about Gradle's command-line interface. Also, finally, we wrote our first Gradle build script.

If you have followed the chapter until this point, you are all set to check out any Gradle-based project on your machine and execute builds. Also, you are equipped with the knowledge to write a very basic Gradle build script. Going forward, we will look at building Java-based projects with Gradle.
