Whether you use a mono-repository or multi-repository approach for your sources, managing dependencies is central to productivity by reusing artifacts and ensuring a quality build. A single incorrect dependency can break existing code, introduce a vulnerability or simply prevent your project from building.

Android builds can be complex and challenging to optimize, yet Android teams usually have the fewest resources to work on the build. In this webinar, Jason Schroeder from Salesforce and Rooz Mohazzabi from Gradle discuss top Android build issues an how to solve them.

We found out that compilation speed is not affected much by instance size, while the price doubles with every step. The most cost-effective instance is thus m5.large (2 cores). But what happens when we throw in our Hydra parallel Scala compiler?

Do you ever watch your IDE sync or build run and think to yourself: “This is slow. I think this used to be much faster”? I do, more often than I’d like to admit.

Build logic can grow as complex as application logic and because of that good tooling is key for a productive build-logic authoring and maintenance experience. In this webinar, Paul Merlin and Rodrigo B. de Oliveira from Gradle explain how the Gradle Kotlin DSL leverages the Kotlin language and its great tooling to provide just that.

Whether you use a mono-repository or multi-repository approach for your sources, managing dependencies is central to productivity by reusing artifacts and ensuring a quality build.

We ran a number of Scala compilation benchmarks and look at what instance type is the fastest and what offers the best cost per build. We also checked the speed improvements in the latest 2.12.8 release, so read on for the full story or jump to Conclusions for the tl;dr;

Today, we’re excited to announce a big step towards our mission to transform how software is built and shipped. We recognize that not all teams are using Gradle or are in a position to migrate soon. In this blog post, we’ll learn how you can utilize the insights provided by build scans and the acceleration of the build cache in Apache Maven™ builds.

Build cache infrastructure can be critical to accelerate your builds. But don’t expect to achieve your maximum potential build acceleration right out of the box.
