## Architecture decision records (ADRs)

The Gradle team uses ADRs to record architectural decisions that the team has made.

See [Architecture decisions records](standards) for the list of ADRs.
Be aware these are very technical descriptions of the decisions, and you might find the documentation below more useful as an introduction to the internals of Gradle.

## Platform architecture

## Architecture Standards

**Experimental!**

We'd like to capture our architectural decisions about the build tool as [Architectural Decision Records (ADRs)](https://adr.github.io/).
For now we just have this global repository of ADRs.
If we see fit, we can break these out to per-platform ones, or keep a hybrid approach to having global and platform-specific ADSs.

Our aim is to keep the process lightweight and approachable.

You also need to run `mvn clean verify` with Java 8 before committing changes.

If you have ktlint errors, you can automatically fix them by running `mvn com.github.gantsign.maven:ktlint-maven-plugin:1.1.1:format`.
