How do I convert a Maven project to Gradle Kotlin DSL?▼

To convert a Maven project to Gradle Kotlin DSL, this Skill automates generating `build.gradle.kts`, `settings.gradle.kts`, and `libs.versions.toml` from your `pom.xml`. It handles single-module and multi-module projects seamlessly.

Can I add Gradle alongside Maven without removing my existing build?▼

Yes, you can add Gradle alongside Maven using the dual-build overlay mode. This allows for gradual migration without immediate disruption to your existing Maven build process.

Does the Maven to Gradle migration handle Spring Boot parent POMs?▼

Yes, the Maven to Gradle migration handles Spring Boot parent POM conversion. It smartly maps scopes, BOM imports, annotation processors, and common plugins to their Gradle equivalents.

What is a Gradle version catalog and do I need it for my migration?▼

A Gradle version catalog (`libs.versions.toml`) centralizes dependency versions. This Skill automatically generates it during your Maven to Gradle migration to provide a modern starting point.

How are Maven profiles converted when migrating to Gradle KTS?▼

Maven profiles are converted to their Gradle Kotlin DSL equivalents during the migration process. This ensures your environment-specific configurations remain intact in the new build tool.
