What other aspects does this approach simplify? Project builds, no matter whether Gradle or Maven are being used, always show the best performance when nothing needs to be added to the artifact. The resulting size of the packages directly impacts the build time. In the case of zero-dependency applications, only the compiled classes are included, that is, only the actual business logic. Therefore, the resulting build times are as minimal as they will get. All build time is spent on compiling the ...
