Gradle Project Structure
Explore the standard Gradle project layout and the role of `build.gradle` and `settings.gradle`.
Why Structure Matters
A well-organized project is key to successful development! Just like a recipe needs clear steps, a software project needs a clear structure.
Gradle projects follow a standard layout. This makes it easier for developers to understand, maintain, and collaborate on code.
The Gradle Root Project
Every Gradle build has a root project. This is usually the top-level directory where you run Gradle commands.
- It's the starting point for Gradle's build process.
- It can be a single project or contain multiple subprojects.
Think of it as the main folder for your entire application.
