# Java Module System (with Gradle)

This is a minimalistic project that shows a structured Java project setup utilising the

[Java Module System (JPMS)](https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se21/html/jls-7.html#jls-7.7)

to define a modular software structure with

[Gradle](https://github.com/gradle/gradle)

as the underlying build system.

To integrate these, the 

[GradleX](https://gradlex.org/)

Java development plugins are used.

With this setup, modularization and other build configuration concerns are separated.

With that accidental complexity in the module setup is avoided.

### Learn more

- Watch my 2024 talk [Boosting Developer Productivity Through Better Modularity](https://dpe.org/sessions/jendrik-johannes/boosting-developer-productivity-through-better-modularity)) (and [browse the slides](docs/developer-productivity-and-modularity-2024.pdf)) which uses this example

- Browse slides of my 2024 talk [Combining Java Modules and Gradle for elegant project structures](docs/java-modules-and-gradle-2024.pdf) which is based on this sample

- Browse slides of my 2023 talk [Modularizing Projects with the Java Module System and Gradle](docs/java-modules-and-gradle-2023.pdf) which gives more background on the modularity concepts in Java and Gradle

- Watch my YouTube playlist [Understanding Gradle – Java Modularity](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLWQK2ZdV4Yl092zlY7Dy1knCmi0jhTH3H) for even more information on modularity in Java and how it is handled in Gradle

### Build the example

- Run `./gradlew check` to run tests and check integrity of the module setup

- To build a self-contained installable of the application, run:

  - Run `./gradlew assembleWindows-2022`

  - Run `./gradlew assembleMacos-13`

  - Run `./gradlew assembleMacos-14`

  - Run `./gradlew assembleUbuntu-22.04`

The example also builds on GitHub.
