Today’s Agenda: Building Applications

The official topics for today are:

• Java Builds with Gradle (Chapter 3)
• maybe CI/CD (Chapter 4)

The two Gradle labs are where you want to be before we hit Jenkins on Thursday.

• Lab 4 - Build Java Projects (I like to do this one first)
• Lab 3 - Gradle Tasks

Friendly Learning

We will be supplementing the Gradle slides with a Kahoot quiz.

We will also do the GitFlow and Maven exercise together to demonstrate how Git, Maven and Gradle all work together.

Build Exercises

Take a look at these two assignments. We will do them together:

• Build Exercise I (Maven, Git and Java)
• Build Exercise I (GitFlow Integration)

For those who really want to hone their Git and GitHub skills, we have this exercise as well:

• The (Almost) Full GitFlow LifecycleI (GitFlow Integration)
