Gradle vs LambCI: What are the differences?
Gradle: A powerful build system for the JVM. Gradle is a build tool with a focus on build automation and support for multi-language development. If you are building, testing, publishing, and deploying software on any platform, Gradle offers a flexible model that can support the entire development lifecycle from compiling and packaging code to publishing web sites; LambCI: A continuous integration system built on AWS Lambda. LambCI is a package you can upload to AWS Lambda that gets triggered when you push new code or open pull requests on GitHub and runs your tests (in the Lambda environment itself) – in the same vein as Jenkins, Travis or CircleCI.
Gradle belongs to "Java Build Tools" category of the tech stack, while LambCI can be primarily classified under "Continuous Integration".
Gradle and LambCI are both open source tools. Gradle with 9.23K GitHub stars and 2.7K forks on GitHub appears to be more popular than LambCI with 3.6K GitHub stars and 210 GitHub forks.
