I feel your pain, and fully agree. In our work's Java projects, we use both Maven and Gradle. Gradle is an absolute pain and we often and up debugging the build system itself. Maven is much simpler, but yes, compiling our projects (web services) downloads 1000's of JAR files on a clean environment. It's nuts! The only saving grace, is that downloads/dependencies all pull from a Maven Central Repository, making that part painless.
