Each platform provides support for some kind of automation, such as building JVM software or building Gradle plugins.
Most platforms typically build on the features of other platforms.

By understanding the Gradle platforms and their relationships, you can get a feel for where in the Gradle source a particular feature might be implemented.

See [Gradle platform architecture](platforms.md) for a list of the platforms and more details.
