Hans Dockter's Gradle In-Depth
Event Info
Description
Join us for this 3-day Gradle course to learn how to use the Gradle build system to increase your productivity (tremendously). This Gradle training class first runs through some Groovy fundamentals and then moves quickly into thorough in-depth coverage of the Gradle build system including an extended module on how to work with the new Gradle based Android build system as well as an introduction on using the Gradle Scala plugin.
You'll spend a significant portion of the class with your hands on the keyboard, learning by doing, working through lab exercises designed to build on the presented material and explore the depths of Gradle.. This class can take you from complete newcomer status to Gradle competence. Due to the in-depth treatment of the topics it is also very suitable for people who have already Gradle experience. The class will be delivered by a Gradle Core Developer which gives you access to the deepest Gradle knowledge available. No question will remain unanswered.
If you are an experienced Java, Scala or Android developer and you would like to learn how to build and automate your projects with Gradle - in a Gradle course authored by the founder and creator of the Gradle project, this is a good Gradle course for you.
