Description

Having a proper project template helps a lot in getting dependencies right. For example, setting the core dependencies to "provided", the connector / library dependencies to "compile", etc.

The Maven quickstarts are in good shape by now, but there is none for Gradle and Gradle users to get this wrong quite often.
