Android studio gradle home path

Question

Hi friends i want to set gradle home path in android studio. https://stackoverflow.com/a/22753291 according to this answer there should be a gradle folder in android studio folder . But i don't have it can anyone please tell me why.

Answer 1

The Gradle plugin is only a support system for android to get used to gradle, especially in your case you have to set GRADLE_HOME in your system environment variables. https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin

But usally there would be a gradle wrapper if you haven't installed gradle, it should be inside your project folder. you can use it by calling gradlew inside your project folder.

So you have to download Gradle and install it.

then set the GRADLE_HOME variable if not set. https://www.architectryan.com/2018/03/17/add-to-the-path-on-windows-10/

I would not suggest setting the gradle home inside your android studio folder.

Answer 2

You can find it inside the plugins folder
