A modern programming language that makes developers happier.

kotlinlang

I must be completely dumb. I try to stick to the documentation but nothing works.

Ex:

Or, starting with Kotlin 1.1.1, the plugin can be applied using the Gradle plugins DSL:

plugins {
    id “org.jetbrains.kotlin.jvm” version “&lt;version to use&gt;”
}

but when use that it my build.gradle.kts, it’s all red.

<@U3TVC4D9S> what is your distribution url?

kotlin-dsl is available since 0.10, if you are talking about ```
plugins {
    `kotlin-dsl`
}
```
Gradle 4.0.1 is out! Featuring:
❯ Stable Caching for Java
❯ Kotlin DSL 0.9
❯ Enhanced CLI
❯ Parallel Downloads

`https\://services.gradle.org/distributions/gradle-4.0.1-all.zip`

It’s a productivity nightmare for the moment. My computer is close to death. I’m going to go back to the “classical” gradle version.

<@U0C1JH0RF> This guide covers only Groovy DSL.
<https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/using-gradle.html>

Kotlin-dsl is not 1.0 and still in development and API changing each minor version, so if you are not familiar with Gradle in overall and don’t want to be an early adopter of gradle/kotlin-dsl just use groovy configs, at least you will have full docs and config snippets

But it’s good to use latest stable version of Gradle to get last fixes and build speed improvements.

<@U0BRK9HC5> thanks for your advice. This is what I’ve done with far more results in just an hour…
