Deep-clean with Sebastiano Poggi

Listen Later

☢️☢️☢️ When Gradle or the IDE let you down, just --nuke all them caches ☢️☢️☢️

Today’s project is basically a script: deep-clean.

This script is the last resort to unblock yourself when your Android/JVM/Gradle builds are damn broken.

deep-clean will take care of cleaning up your build caches. If you’re really stuck, you should also look
into the --nuke option to purge every possible cache and start from a clean environment.

Its author, Sebastiano Poggi, is on stage to tell us the story behind it.

As a bonus, we also talk a bit about Seb’s new journey with Twitch: CodeWithTheItalians 🍕.

Enjoy the show 👨‍🍳
