## Composition by architecture modules

Each [architecture module and platform](platforms.md) can contribute code to any of the elements.
Not every module contributes to every element.

## Composition by architecture modules

Each [architecture module and platform](platforms.md) can contribute code to any of the runtimes.
Not every module contributes to every runtime.

The core-runtime module defines each runtime:

- The target JVM for the runtime. Each runtime has its own JVM compatibility constraints.

## Useful tips

### How Gradle Works

We have [a series of blog](https://blog.gradle.org/how-gradle-works-1) that explains how Gradle works.
This may help you better understand and contribute to Gradle.

### Debugging Gradle

The platforms and modules are defined using a DSL in [settings.gradle.kts](../settings.gradle.kts)

name: Contributor CI Build

on:
  push:
    branches:
      - master
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - master

concurrency:
  # On master/release, we don't want any jobs cancelled so the sha is used to name the group
  # On PR branches, we cancel the job if new commits are pushed
