+1 from me. I prefer Gradle for two main reasons:
- Control over how a library's dependencies are exposed ("api" vs
"implementation", see
https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/java_library_plugin.html#sec:java_library_configurations_graph)
- build.gradle is a lot simpler and a lot less verbose than pom.xml
Drawback: Maven probably has a lot more plugins.

For those of us not as familiar with Gradle, what are some of the

opinions here and am entirely content to stay with maven, if that’s what the
community wishes.
