it simplifies buildscripts a lot and learning how to move constants and functions into

buildSrc

also helps with that

Why move constants there and not use the extra delegate functions @Nikky?

because then you still have no idea if it will blow up in your face

val notThere: String by project

might or might not work based on what is in gradle.properties, or the arguments or the user properties etc and it gives you no ways to jump to the code

Ok, that makes sense. So you put this file in the root project and copy it in all your projects?
