Gradle store on local file system

Question

How does Gradle store downloaded jar files on the local file system? Maven stores them in the .m2 directory under USER_HOME, but where does Gradle

Answer 1

In fact the cache location depends on the GRADLE_USER_HOME environment variable value. By default, it is $USER_HOME/.gradle on Unix-OS based and %userprofile%.\gradle on Windows.
But if you set this variable, the cache directory would be located from this path.

And whatever the case, you should dig into caches\modules-2\files-2.1 to find the dependencies.
