with the new js plugin writing into build/distributions/, it's hard to use the distribution plugin to then zip that directory (because it wants to write it into build/distributions/. Are people just writing their own zip tasks to avoid this mess?

Heh, before we needed the custom copy task. Now it's a custom zip task? Guess this means we are almost free of custom tasks for a typical build 🙂

I think I'll file a bug. I don't think the default should be writing into the distributions dir because it breaks actual distributions usage. And it would be nice if we could set up a real distribution with a one-liner. Or maybe the default could just be to use the distributiosn plugin so that distZip and installDist work

Custom plugin?

No. Standard Gradle plugin
