h3. Gradle

TODO:

* Does "Gradle":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradle depends on gradle for being able to built Android[1]?

* Does gradle or other dependencies really depends on scala?

* if so where are the efforts to build scala without scala?

Answers from a Guix perspective:

* Julien Lepiller is mainly working on bringing Gradle/Scala into Guix. "In his Guix development project":https://framagit.org/tyreunom/guix-more/tree/master#adding-gradle-and-scalasbt he writes that Gradle depends on Scala/SBT without mentioning the exact blocker.

* Scala depends on Scala to bootstrap. If you go down the long bootstrap chain you will end up at "Pizza":https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pizza_(programming_language). It is unsure if you can successfully bootstrap Scala from Pizza from Java.

* Julien wrote "this blog post":https://lepiller.eu/scala-et-sbt-bient%C3%B4t-dans-guix-.html (French) about the whole Android/Scala/Kotlin bootstrapping problem.

* "Scabo":https://framagit.org/tyreunom/scabo is The Scala Bootstrapping Project, Julien's attempt to bootstrap Scala from Java.

* Scala 3.0 will be the new "Dotty project":https://dotty.epfl.ch/, see also "this blog post":https://www.scala-lang.org/blog/2018/04/19/scala-3.html. I have not investigated if this project cleans up bootstrapping or will make it worse.

fn1. "A debian build log of gradle":https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=gradle&arch=all&ver=4.4.1-4&stamp=1547515176&raw=0 "Merged Build-Depends: [...] gradle (>= 3.4)[...]"
