I'm relatively new to Gradle and IntelliJ (switching over from eclipse), but your videos have been helpful to my learning. The only issue I have had is with the Maven Artifact Search utility which yields no results even after updating the remote repository in settings. Would you happen to know how to fix this?

Where are you inputting this ./gradlew command at? In android studio or the computer's terminal? Would it be the same command on Mac and PC?

Exception: Gradle task assembleDebug failed with exit code -1

installing gradle installs gradlew as well?
new to ubuntu and i followed some tutorial online to install gradle into the /usr/local/gradle
the command itself works just fine; gradle, but not gradlew, so is this something fixed by installing gradle through apt or snap? or gradlew is something completely different?
