# Getting Started

Here's how to get started with making contributions to this project:

1. Install a JDK (Java Development Kit) version 7 or higher.
1. Install a JDK (Java Development Kit) version 9 or higher. (If you're working with ml-gradle 2.x or 3.x, you only need Java 8.)
1. Clone this repository.
1. Assuming you want to use Eclipse for development, run "gradlew eclipse" (or "gradle eclipse" if you have Gradle installed locally). This will generate Eclipse project files.
1. Import your repository folder as a new project in Eclipse. Everything should compile successfully and you should be good to go.

I also don't have an .editorconfig file yet. In the absence of one, just follow these simple guidelines:
## Formatting

1. Use spaces for tabs
1. Use a tab size of 4 spaces
See the [.editorconfig](.editorconfig) file. If you don't have an [editorconfig plugin](https://editorconfig.org/#download),
either install that or follow the guidelines set in the file.
