What is the difference between gradle repository and a maven repository?

Question

I’m trying to create a custom Artifactory repository to resolve dependencies in my gradle project, but I’m confused between gradle and maven repo: what repository key should I choose? And what is the real difference between a gradle repository and a maven repository?

Answer 1

There is no such thing as a Gradle repository.

While Maven is the name for both a build tool and a repository type, Gradle ist just a build tool. It supports both Maven and Ivy repositories.
