Hi Subramanyam, The fact that Apache Kafka uses Gradle as its build tool doesn't prevent you, or any other developer, from using a different build tool like Apache Ant, as it's your case. It has been a while since I last used Apache Ant, but if memory serves me correctly, you would need to download the desired Kafka producer and consumer libraries from any trusted source (like https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.apache.kafka or https://kafka.apache.org/downloads), and then place them in your preferred external library location in your project, and adapt the build accordingly.
Best of luck in your project!
