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.

## Architecture overview

### Platform architecture

Gradle is arranged into several coarse-grained components called "platforms".

Environment variables could be useful for handling application **settings**, as part of the **installation** of Python, etc.

## Create and Use Env Vars { #create-and-use-env-vars }

Most of these ideas would be more or less **independent**, and in most cases you should only need to study them if they apply directly to **your project**.

If something seems interesting and useful to your project, go ahead and check it, but otherwise, you might probably just skip them.
