Installing Gradle


Perform the following steps to install Gradle:

  1. Go to the Gradle download page by entering the URL http://www.gradle.org/downloads in your browser.

  2. Click on the latest Gradle stable release download link; at the time of writing this, the stable release is gradle-1.11-all.zip.

  3. Once the download is finished, go to the downloaded directory and extract the ZIP file into a convenient directory of your choice.

  4. Create an environment variable called GRADLE_HOME. Enter the extracted Gradle ZIP directory path as the value for the GRADLE_HOME environment variable.

  5. Finally, append the GRADLE_HOME variable to PATH by simply appending the text ;%GRADLE_HOME%\bin to the PATH variable.

Now that you have installed Gradle on your Windows-based computer, to verify whether the installation was completed correctly, go to the command prompt, type gradle -v, and press Enter. The output shows the Gradle version and also the local environment configuration.
