Hey @Oleg Nenashev. I wanted some clarification on one of the project ideas you'd been assigned as a possible mentor: Gradle build server – support for Android projects. Is the project suppose to provide support for Android builds on the Gradle Build Server on Microsoft Visual Studio Code? I also noticed that one of the skills required was Kotlin but the Build Server for Gradle was implemented in Java, is this a hard requirement or can the contribution still be done in Java?

Hello. My apologies for the response delay. Indeed, knowing Kotlin is not a hard requirement for this project. It is listed, because it is a standard language for defining the Android projects themselves, so most likely you will need to learn it a bit during the project.
But yes, I would also expect Java to be used for the most of the implementation
