+Gradle is build automation evolved.
+
+Gradle can automate the building, testing, publishing, deployment and more of
+software packages or other types of projects such as generated static websites,
+generated documentation or indeed anything else.
+
+Gradle combines the power and flexibility of Ant with the dependency management
+and conventions of Maven into a more effective way to build.
+
+Powered by a Groovy DSL and packed with innovation, Gradle provides a declarative
+way to describe all kinds of builds through sensible defaults.
+Gradle is quickly becoming the build system of choice for many open source
+projects, leading edge enterprises and legacy automation challenges.
