This platform does not provide special support for a particular kind of automation. This is the responsibility of other platforms. 

It is made up of 3 architecture modules:

- **Runtime**: Provides the runtimes or "containers" in which code runs. These runtimes include the Gradle client, the daemon and the worker processes. This is the base module on which all other architecture modules depend.

    The summary is that it ignores one file in favor of the other.
    util.concurrent, like nearly all our packages, has two .gwt.xml files: one
    for prod and one for tests. However, unlike our other packages, as of this
    writing it has test supersource but no prod supersource.

    GWT happens to use the prod .gwt.xml, so it looks for no supersource for

Kotlin, Groovy, Java, and other JVM-based languages should be able to use the Gradle API without relying on another language's standard library.

Historically, Gradle has shipped with some Groovy types in very prominent APIs.
This required the Kotlin DSL to add special integration to work with Groovy closures.
This has also forced plugins written in languages other than Groovy to use Groovy types for some APIs.
