A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

Curious what's the reasoning behind not having
```fun DependencyHandlerScope.implementations(vararg deps: Any) =
    deps.forEach { this.implementation(it) }

fun DependencyHandlerScope.testImplementations(vararg deps: Any) =
    deps.forEach { this.testImplementation(it) }```
in Gradle Kotlin DSL

To be able to do like this
```dependencies {
    implementations(
        libs.spring.boot.starter.web,
        libs.kotlinx.serialization.json,
        libs.commercetools.http.client,
        libs.commercetools.sdk.api,
        libs.commercetools.sdk.importapi,
        <http://libs.commercetools.sdk.ml|libs.commercetools.sdk.ml>,
    )

    testImplementations(
        libs.slf4j.api,
        libs.logback.classic,
        libs.mockk,
        libs.kotest.runner,
        libs.kotest.assertions,
        libs.kotest.property,
        libs.kotlinx.coroutines.test,
        libs.spring.boot.starter.test,
    )
}```

I really like that syntax without repetition.
But maybe there are some caveats and reasons why Gradle Kotlin DSL doesn’t ship with this kind of shorthand (`implementations(...)`, `testImplementations(...)`) out of the box like Groovy DSL allows out of the box.
But now I do not see any

btw wrote a small post <https://medium.com/@avuzia/stop-repeating-yourself-in-gradle-kotlin-dsl-elegant-dependency-helpers-24193c164b12>

Thanks it is a cool idea. And since we're working on adding kotlin-level dependencies block via gradle's <https://docs.gradle.org/current/kotlin-dsl/gradle/org.gradle.api.artifacts.dsl/-dependency-collector/index.html|dependency collector> mechanism
here is the YT ticket to track and share feedback:
<https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-80296/Improve-dependency-declaration-DSL-by-providing-a-single-method-call-for-adding-multiple-dependencies-for-each-scope|https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-80296/Improve-dependency-declaration-DSL-by-prov[…]thod-call-for-adding-multiple-dependencies-for-each-scope>

But shouldn't this still be added on Gradle-side, not Kotlin-side?
If it is added at all.

```dependencies {
    listOf(
        libs.spring.boot.starter.web,
        libs.kotlinx.serialization.json,
        libs.commercetools.http.client,
        libs.commercetools.sdk.api,
        libs.commercetools.sdk.importapi,
        <http://libs.commercetools.sdk.ml|libs.commercetools.sdk.ml>,
    ).forEach(::implementation)

    listOf(
        libs.slf4j.api,
        libs.logback.classic,
        libs.mockk,
        libs.kotest.runner,
        libs.kotest.assertions,
        libs.kotest.property,
        libs.kotlinx.coroutines.test,
        libs.spring.boot.starter.test,
    ).forEach(::testImplementation)
}```
is possible *now*
