Gradle supports Incremental Builds, If a Java Class has not been changed from its last build it will avoids recompiling to generate .class file so that build-time will be saved.
Transitive Dependencies will be managed by Gradle which is added later in Maven2
Concurrency Safe Cache. You can run several builds on the Same Cache (Similar to Local Repository in Maven) Gradle will ensure the Cache is concurrency safe.
Custom Repository Layout, unlike Maven in Gradle you can customize the Directory structure of a project
File based dependencies - In Maven to use your own dependency you need to import it into local maven repository but in Gradle you can refer the Jar dependencies from File System as dependency
Fully Configurable - In Maven the only way of adding the build extensions is through plug-in. But in Gradle you can write Tasks like Ant and can customize the build behaviour easily

Thanks for the video, I'm just starting to really dive into java. Recently found out about Maven and Gradle being something important in java so I'm researching all I can. This video helped.

Thanks for the video. It was a little light on some bits but I think that's acceptable for a quick comparison. Btw, macOS is not based on Linux, it's based on NeXTstep which in turn was based on BSD.

It is easy to find simple showvases in the internet. I never see anybody showing an example that is closer to a real world use case. This video is no exception. Nothing much from it can you gain.

Thank you for your video. The content is very good.

Amazing videos, l think you should do some API endpoint video, where backend and frontend catch on endpoint and all that stuff...
Spring Boot with Angular or something for example :) Well done.

i have few queries. please make a video showing
how to view dependency hierarchy using gradle.
how to work on exclusions and identify conflicting jars using dependency tree.
how to open dependent jar classes using gradle like we just click on the <dependency> and it goes into the pom.xml file of that dependency.

Hello there, It's nice video on Gradle I have watched so far. Many thanks. Could you please prepare a Gradle project which has multiple modules? Regards

Help!
okay, so when you ran build command on gradle, it was suppose to run the "test" task, BUT when you ran a specific task: "techprimers" at 16:33, why did it execute "test" there as well?
