Tip
Our cache directory location changed! It's now nested under the JetBrains directory with other JetBrains tools. To save disk space, feel free to clean up the old Amper cache one directory above. To find where the shared cache is on your machine, run ./amper --help and check the default value for --shared-caches-root.
Warning
As previously announced, the Gradle plugin for Gradle-based Amper projects has now been removed, and there was no 0.8.0 publication of this plugin. Please give a try to the standalone Amper build tool and let us know what you think!
