Gradle

Gradle vs Ant: which is better for legacy builds?

The question is about Gradle .

Answer:

Ant is simple and manual, using XML scripts, and can boost legacy project migration and fixes, but it lacks dependency management and standard tooling. Gradle offers modern dependency management, build optimisation, and backward compatibility with Ant scripts. For future-proofing and ease of legacy support, Gradle is preferred over plain Ant.
