You need to have Java and Gradle installed to run these katas. Follow the intallation guides for each product:
- Java: adoptopenjdk.net
- Gradle: gradle.org
You can check your installation with the following command:
$ gradle -version
------------------------------------------------------------
Gradle 6.1
------------------------------------------------------------
...
To work through the katas, you need to clone this repository locally. For each exercise, you will then
- Go into the folder with the exrecise you want to work on
- Run the
setup.shscript - Consult the README.md in that folder to get a description of the exercise
These katas are designed to run under Bash, so they should be straight forward to run on MacOS or most commont Linux distributions. For windows users, we recommend using Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL).
This repository is a collection of Gradle exercises. The concept is stolen without shame from Schauderhaft.de.
The exercises are designed for use when we are teaching Gradle courses. You should be able to use them as self-contained exercises that will allow you to keep your Gradle skills sharp.
Feel free to use these exercises, that's why they're public!
