Dependency Management - OUCH!
English session - Beginner
If you want to learn how to escape or not even enter dependency hell, come to this talk.
You will gain an understanding of the principles behind dependency management we use with Gradle.
A single incorrect dependency can break existing code, introduce a vulnerability or simply prevent your project from building.
Whatever your approach, your sources and dependencies are central to productivity by reusing artifacts and ensuring a quality build.
Give your build some love, it will give it back!
English session - Beginner
For all JVM builds - you will learn how to organize the construction of your software whether a mono repository or several repos. Build logic will be reusable, convention-based, and with code quality and testing.
We'll also see how Configuration Cache helps speed up local development by starting tasks running immediately. You will learn how it works and what constraints it imposes, in alignment with idiomatic recommendations.
