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

### Gradle runtimes

Gradle is also made up of several different processes that work together to "run the build", such as the Gradle daemon and the `gradlew` command.

Each process, or "runtime", applies different constraints to the code that runs in that process.

### IntelliJ IDEA

#### Import Gradle into IntelliJ

To import Gradle into IntelliJ:

- [ ] Provide integration tests (under `<subproject>/src/integTest`) to verify changes from a user perspective.
- [ ] Provide unit tests (under `<subproject>/src/test`) to verify logic.
- [ ] Update User Guide, DSL Reference, and Javadoc for public-facing changes.
- [ ] Ensure that tests pass sanity check: `./gradlew sanityCheck`.
- [ ] Ensure that tests pass locally: `./gradlew <changed-subproject>:quickTest`.
