If you've heard of the #MavenHijack supply chain threat 🔒, here is a great blog post from the Gradle eng team describing how it works, how to detect it, and how to prevent it from happening in #Gradle Build Tool 👇 https://blog.gradle.org/detect-maven-hijack-risks-in-gradle-with-plugin

Some 2025 numbers for #Gradle: 🎉 Over 600 million downloads 🤯 Nearly 2 billion plugin downloads Congratulations to the #Gradle Build Tool team, our amazing #GradleFellows and our growing community! Stay up to date: https://newsletter.gradle.org/

New from #Gradle! 🌐 #Develocity Universal Cache 🌐 Three revolutionary caching technologies in one place: 📦 Artifact Cache - Caching inputs before the build ⏱️ Setup Cache - Caching environments at build time 🔄 Build Cache - Caching outputs for future builds https://tinyurl.com/4dn8e6a8

The #OpenAI team built the #Sora #Android app in 28 days with #Codex. But the real lesson? They rely on [./gradlew detektFix] to enforce code quality, proving that #Gradle remains the single source of truth for software integrity. https://openai.com/index/shipping-sora-for-android-with-codex/

Despite the confusing name, this runs entirely offline and you don't need develocity license and a server instance to use it. Give it a spin if you want to get a sense where your build is slow.

Productivity and Fun are not mutually exclusive for developers! Watch my talk with @hollycummins.com from @qconferences.com London this year to see why, and get tips for having more fun AND being more productive (transcript included) www.infoq.com/presentation...

A theme that really stood out at @gradle.com's DPE Summit conference is that while developers feel productive using GenAI for coding, this isn't necessarily translating into more features/fixes/customer value for organisations. So I wrote a blog post about it gradle.com/blog/develop...

Very good summary mainly about the findings of the last DORA report. Fix the basics, LLM-based tooling may help. The basics are not sound, the firehose of code production will create more problems than it solves.

It's really nice to see @gradle.com's Develocity plugin mentioned in @intellijidea.com's What's New page for 2025.3 www.jetbrains.com/idea/whatsne...
