About:
QLGradle is a macOS Quick Look plugin that enables previewing Gradle build files directly in Finder. It provides syntax highlighting and formatted display of Groovy-based Gradle scripts, eliminating the need to open them in a text editor. This tool streamlines the workflow for developers working with multiple Gradle projects.
Key Features:
  • Syntax highlighting for Gradle/Groovy code
  • No need to open files in an editor for quick viewing
  • Lightweight and easy to install
  • Supports standard .gradle file extensions
Use Cases:
  • Quickly inspecting build.gradle files without launching an IDE
  • Reviewing dependency configurations in Gradle projects
  • Comparing different versions of Gradle build scripts
Alternatives:
  • QLStephen – Generic Quick Look plugin for plain text files, lacks Gradle-specific syntax highlighting
  • Homebrew's built-in preview – Requires command-line usage, not integrated with Finder's Quick Look
