Problems you may encounter:
| Build Tools | Advantage | Disadvantage |
|---|---|---|
| Ant | Flexible to use and faster than Maven and gradle | Without imposing any coding convention on the project directory structure, developers need to write complex XML file build instructions, which is a challenge for developers. |
| Maven | Follow a set of project directory structures with conventions greater than configuration, use agreed GAV coordinates for dependency management, and focus on package management. | The project construction process is rigid, configuration file writing is not flexible enough, it is inconvenient to customize components, and the construction speed is slower than Gradle |
| Gradle | It combines the flexibility of Ant scripts + the advantages of Maven conventions over configured project directories, supports a variety of remote warehouses and plug-ins, and focuses on the construction of large projects. | The learning cost is high, there is little information, the script is flexible, and the version compatibility is poor. |
