Gradle will set itself up during the first build on any system. It requires an active internet connection to do so.

Set Up

Developing with IntelliJ IDEA

1. Run gradlew idea to create the IDEA project files.
2. Import the project into IDEA.
3. (If necessary,) open the 'Project Structure' Dialog (Ctrl+Alt+Shift+S) and set the Project SDK to a SDK > 6.0.

Developing with Eclipse

1. Run gradlew eclipse to create the Eclipse project files.
2. Import all projects into Eclipse.

Developing with NetBeans

1. Have the Gradle Support plugin installed.
2. Optional: Configure your global preferences.
3. Open the project as you would open any other project in NetBeans.

Adding a dependency

1. Add the dependency entry to the module's build.gradle.

Adding a new module

IntelliJ IDEA users best run this outside of the IDE, else it might not pick up all changes.

2. In settings.gradle, add your module name.
3. Regenerate your IDE's workspace as per the "Developing with..." sections above.
4. [Eclipse Only] import the project.
