  DependencySpec | A dependency onto a Gradle component.
  DependencySpecBuilder | A builder of a `DependencySpec`.
  DependencySpecContainer | A container for dependency specifications.
  GeneralComponentSpec | A general purpose component specification, that can be used to represent some software component built from source and producing multiple output variants.
  Library | A library that can be linked into or depended on by another software element.

  Platform | The platform or runtime that a binary is designed to run on.
  PlatformAwareComponentSpec | Defines Platform specific operations for ComponentSpecs
  PlatformContainer | A container of `Platform`s.
  ProjectDependencySpec | A dependency onto a library published by a project.
  ProjectDependencySpecBuilder | A builder of a `ProjectDependencySpec`.
  SourceComponentSpec | Represents some component whose implementation can be represented as a collection of source files, and whose other outputs are built from this source.
  ToolChain | A set of compilers that are used together to construct binaries.
  ToolChainRegistry<P extends Platform,​T extends ToolChain> | A Provider of `ToolChain`s.
  TransformationFileType | The type of a file of a transformation
  TypeBuilder<T> | A TypeBuilder to configure the registration of a type.
  VariantComponent | A component that has one or more mutually exclusive variants.
