Gradle¶

TODO:

Does Gradle depends on gradle for being able to built Android¹?
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 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. It is unsure if you can successfully bootstrap Scala from Pizza from Java.
Julien wrote this blog post (French) about the whole Android/Scala/Kotlin bootstrapping problem.
Scabo is The Scala Bootstrapping Project, Julien's attempt to bootstrap Scala from Java.
Scala 3.0 will be the new Dotty project, see also this blog post. I have not investigated if this project cleans up bootstrapping or will make it worse.
