What book/course/documentation for getting deep dive in gradle, kotlin, testing and multi module pattern? 🙂

where could I find the documentation for the kotlin plugin? (i.e., what options are available, if there are any that are specific, examples that may show those options, etc.). This general page on the plugin does not have much detail.

KGP also publishes API docs

https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-47897/Official-Kotlin-Gradle-plugin-api the KGP gradle plugin currently doesn't have a clear distinction between what is stable public API and not; eventually it will, and the public portion should be better documented

Thanks. The reason I'm delving into this is to see how the compileJava task is introduced into the task tree. And if there's a way to disable it. https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C542V467L/p1705341684417929

I'm able to accomplish this as a 2-step process, but it's a little awkward:

./gradlew clean compileGroovy -x compileKotlin
    ./gradlew compileKotlin build
