The Gradle "language is based on Groovy, with some additions to make it easier to describe a build":

https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/writing_build_scripts.html

This change adds highlighting of Gradle files like (other) Groovy files.

To be honest, the highlighting isn't super, but:

  • This is an obvious improvement over no highlighting; strings, comments, some keywords and some method names are now highlighted
  • When I have tested this, nothing has been wrong

So this is an improvement, but there would still be room for more in a Gradle-specific grammar.
