Dependency Version Catalogs and Platforms
Centralize and enforce dependency versions across a large multi-module build using version catalogs and Gradle platforms (BOMs) for consistency and governance.
The Version Drift Problem
In enterprise builds with dozens of modules, the same library can end up declared with different versions, causing subtle runtime conflicts. Centralizing versions prevents this drift.
What is a Version Catalog?
A version catalog is a single typesafe list of dependencies and versions, defined in gradle/libs.versions.toml and shared across all modules.
