Purpose

Some common "kits" or plugins for spring and grails

• We use make to wrap gradle.
• after cloning run make check, ./gradlew check will also work.
• make with no target to see help.

NOTE: Make might need to be upgraded to a version later than 3.8. The console message should advise you on using brew.

while gradle is the build tool behind spring/grails, make is used for docker and setting up env for testing
