Welcome to the July 2022 Gradle Build Tool newsletter.

What a big month for the community! This edition features tips and insights from new faces and familiar favorites. From The Gradle Build Tool Team, we launched a new mentorship program, invited new members to the Gradle Fellowship, shared our ideas on remote/distributed builds, and simplified plugin publishing with a new plugin.

Mentorship Program

We are excited to launch our Mentoring Program to increase diversity inside the Gradle Build Tool community. Gradle Fellowship members volunteer their time and talent to mentor others. Applications for the first round of mentoring close soon; apply now.

Gradle Fellowship

Welcome to the Gradle Fellowship to Chris Doré, Cristian Garcia, Ryan Harter, Jendrik Johannes, Aurimas Liutikas. They go above and beyond with a dedicated commitment to sharing knowledge, and we are honored to have them in our community.

Blog Posts

Curious about remote and distributed builds? We just published a series of blog posts, Remote and Distributed Build Patterns which explains the differences between remote and distributed builds and variations on each, and General Build Distribution: A Game-Changer or a Gimmick? about the tradeoffs with general build distribution.

Plugin Publish Plugin v1.0

Configuring the publication of Gradle plugins to the Plugin Portal happens with the help of the Plugin-Publish plugin. The recently released version 1.0.0 of the plugin significantly improves the process by introducing stronger conventions and a more straightforward configuration. Read our blog post for more information.
