* Dependencies must be declared using a `String`, an instance of `Dependency`, a `FileCollection`, a `Provider` of `Dependency`, or a `ProviderConvertible` of `MinimalExternalModuleDependency`.
* Outside of Gradle build scripts, you must explicitly call a getter for the `DependencyCollector` and `add`.
** `dependencies.add("implementation", x)` becomes `getImplementation().add(x)`
