i just want to take a moment to appreciate how every sentence had a purpose and not a second was wasted
Literally 19 seconds in: "I let the cat out of the bag already"
English isn't my native tounge but recently I watched the udacity gradle course also here on CZcams, I had a hard time learning anything. This 24 minutes made a whole lot of sense to me. I'll be following your channel for a lot more. Thanks!
Awesome, glad it helped!
Bro, you are a saint. I always marvel at the folks that produce high quality tutorials for free, especially when compared to some of the lackluster professors in paid academia.
Thank you so much for this!
You're very welcome!
Definitely keep making these videos. I enjoyed the step by step process of video and how you structured the content. It demystified a lot of files in the gradle directory and the concepts around the tool itself. Excellent work!
Wow, this tutorial I feel like is the type of tutorial I've been looking for, for years now the way you present the content and talk about it is easy and clear to understand and not too advanced. I recently graduated with my BS in computer science and for the courses that Java was the focus of we always used Maven. Recently I got a dev job and we're using Gradle since day one now things are much clear on the switch and give me more direction on how to articulate questions I have as well as what to search for in the future. Thank you, gained a subscriber!
Hi Tom, thank you so much for your works. I not only finished watching and creating my first gradle project from this video, but also just finished your entry level cource. Keep going and cheers
I really like the concise nature of this tutorial. It really skips so much of the filler I found in other courses and documents. Thanks for doing this.
The BEST gradle course ever! Thanks!!
Wow Tom - what a tutorial. Your approach was confident, very concise, and clear step-by-step, not assuming any prerequisite knowledge and explaining every jargon without getting too diverted, wonderful visuals and an excellent detailed blog post for people like me who like to read - though I have seen so many positive reviews, I still felt the need to thank you for this wonderful tutorial. Being a CZcams creator myself, I am inspired by you for the comprehensive yet brief and accessible resource, delivered with such poise and calmness. May God bless you Tom.
This has helped me more than you can know. I have referenced this video countless times this semester. Thank you!
Thanks for keeping it simple and showing the small details which other people(including me :)) generally ignore !
Well done. Thanks for taking the time to make this tutorial. This demystified a lot of stuff surrounding gradle for me. Super helpful!
That's great cshchmitz. Glad it helped!
Thank you, this was incredibly clear! You really nailed the balance between the theoretical "why" and the hands-on, kudos!
Awesome. Glad it hit the target for you!
I read the gradle documentation but was still confused. I found your video which is absolutely perfect and easy to follow. Thank you so much, everything is crystal clear now ! Greetings from France
That was awesome. You covered all essential parts in simple and comprehensible way! Now I have motivation to push forward!
That's great. Go for it Clyde!
Wow, exactly what I was looking for, very crisp and clearly explained each of the basics. Thanks a lot
Thanks for the clear explanation and for mentioning that the build file actually consists of methods and closures. It makes the process so much easier to understand.
This is gold. I have worked on JS/TS for over 2 years and assumed that no documentations/tutorials are going to be as simple as JS/TS tutorials. I thought Java stuff (especially build tools) are very complex to follow and understand (hated all the ugly documentations, articles and blog posts). You changed my mind. Anything can be made simple, if done by the right person. Thanks for this amazing introduction.
This is exactly what I needed! I've used Gradle before but with an interview coming up I wanted to really understand the tool. Your examples were perfect and I feel a lot more confident going into this interview, thank you!
Thank you so much for detailed explanation!! It's great that you are posting such invaluable tutorials for free!!!
You're very welcome Selvakumar!
This has really given me a good idea of the purpose of Gradle and improved my knowledge of use, thanks!
Thank you man, I was very confused about how gradle works and what it does because it's the first time I'm using a build tool and you made it all clear to me!
one of the best IT related tutorials ive ever watched, good job man
I love your videos. So calm and clear. Really helpful. Thanks
This is awesome! Much appreciated.
Thanks Tom for making this quick and informative video. I come from maven background and this video is really helpful for my next Gradle based assignment.
Would recommend my friends to have a look at this video.
Glad it hit the spot Vikrant!
This is one of the best tutorial videos I've seen in my life. You're the greatest, keep up the good work. 😁
Dude, you made it so simple and explained it nicely that I am almost looking forward going to work and work with Gradle :D Thanks good luck with the courses.
BY FAR, the best tutorial about Gradle out there. Congratulations and thank you!
Thank you so much for this concise gradle tutorial which covers the basic/ core concepts!!!! I am now from a complete beginner (no knowledge on gradle at att) to can explain to my colleagues about how gradle works.Thanks!
So glad it helped Wendy. Thanks for the reviews.
Your videos are so fun to watch!! And make things seem so easy although its really not. Thank you so much for this thorough explanation! You made my day!
I have had a paid subscription for pluralsight for over 10 years. Off lately I have started finding free youtube tutorials way better than paid pluralsight courses. Good job Tom!
Loved it!!🎉
exactly what I was looking for - thank you!
You are awesome sir. Keep up the fantastic series on Gradle. The best channel to learn Gradle
most compelling and express tutorial ever!! Thank you!
Amazing tutorial Tom! I'm much more clear with the concepts now after watching your explanations.
Thank you so much! Awesome tutorial
Fabulous video. Thanks!
Thank you a lot!! Quick and very introductory!
Thank you so much for this great tutorial. I really liked the way how you speak slow and clear, and always getting back to the basics before getting ahead too much. Before watching this tutorial, Gradle was quite confusing. After watching this video, I have a good understanding of the basic concepts. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you so much. such a clear explanation!
Very nice tutorial, thanks!
Thank you for this tutorial!
Thanks for the informative tutorial!
Much appreciated for the precise explanation. 😀👍
Tom, thanks! This and the other Gradle tutorials you made helped me understand Gradle very smoothly. Great job!
Rock on!
Best video so far. So understandable
amazing, thanks for the tutorial.
wow! Great job, very well explained!
This is a masterful tutorial. CZcamsrs teaching anything should take note. It's simple but (high-level) comprehensive and anticipates the major questions a Gradle newbie would have. "You should be able to run the jar file now right? Let's try it... well, not quite - and here's why, and here's how to fix it..." while introducing another important build config concept. And while we're at it, let's subtly switch over to the online documentation for the feature we're about to explain so you can glean that too. And the precision... not just "let's write this code", it's precise: this is a method, passing a closure, next we call 'x' method and pass a map... reinforcing the Groovy basics. So well done!
This was a huge help. Note to others, watch out for your own typos. I was able to follow along using Ubuntu 22.04 with no issues. Thank you!
this is insanely well explained
This is the best tutorial ,thank you 😊

You're very welcome Andrew!
Excellent! Thank you.
Thank you very much for making this video!
I actually have an exam in two weeks which focuses on Gradle.
Our professor unfortunately didn't manage to convey why Gradle is a tool we should even bother with, but your introduction made that clear very quickly, which was exactly what I was looking for.
Awesome! Yeh it's good to undestand why we use these tools. I'll admit though, I didn't know there were Gradle exams. Good luck!
It helped me to understand more about gradle. Very useful, Thank you.
Excellent video thanks much.
Thank you very much, a nicely structured video

Very good video for teaching Gradle!
God bless the people who have gift of teaching. Thank you
Thank you so much, I really liked the video!
You have a great thought process. Nice video.
You get well deserved "Like" from me, very concise and informative video, thanks.
I just subscribed. This is just what I needed and was looking for. It's concise, clear, has explanation and hands-on. This is what a tutorial should be. My goal is to learn Java, but I wanted to include using a build environment along with it rather than using javac. My desired path and platform based on research is to use vs-code for my IDE, Gradle as the build tool, and develop using Quarkus framework. This gets me off to a good start. I think with this as my baseline starting point, I should be able to pull in the rest. I'm going to check out your other videos to see if they might also help.
Wonderful explanation
Great work my friend, keep going
this is amazing explanation , love it!
That's great & you're welcome Kaiser!
The flow of your video is spectacular. I learn a lot in this video. Cheers!
Glad you enjoyed it!
great tut!
Thanks for sharing this is amazing
Very useful. Thanks a lot.
I was recently assigned with a Java project which I have 0 experience. Your videos make jvm ecosystem a lot less overwheming. Thank you. I subscribed and hopefully can see more videos from you!
Thanks Johnny. More videos coming soon.
