<2> *Configuration*: Gradle configures each project by executing the `build.gradle(.kts)` files. It resolves dependencies and creates a dependency graph of all the available tasks.
<3> *Execution*: Gradle executes the tasks passed on the command line and any prerequisite tasks.

It is important to note that while `task1` was configured and executed, `task2` was not.

* `com.myorg.java-conventions` - configures conventions that are generic for any Java project in the organization.
This applies for both types of previously identified software and thus this plugin will be applied in both subsequent plugins.
* `com.myorg.library-conventions` - adds publishing configuration to publish to the organization's repository and configures mandatory documentation checks.
