I will vouch for the fact that it does take a bit for a newcomer to figure
out what is going on:-)
The User Guide is great at explaining concepts and gives you idea of how
things work. However, it is a little short on details (like attributes
available for a task of Type: jar).
I also found it was helpful to be familiar with Groovy. Gradle is making
more sense now since I went and read the Groovy documentation and messed
with it a little bit.
Out of curiosity where would the Java/Groovy doc be that explains the task
of type Jar? I have looked and I just can't find it.
