 AspectJ, being an Eclipse project, can of course be used in the Eclipse IDE for Java developers, if you also install the
 AspectJ Development Tools (AJDT). IntelliJ IDEA also offers AspectJ and Spring AOP support. Regarding build tools, there

 ### Gradle
 
 In contrast to Maven, there is no de-facto standard build plugin for Gradle, but a bunch of more or less well-maintained
 plugins with a more or less complete feature set. I am not a Gradle user, but when answering related questions on

 Feel free to be skeptical, because the author has both IDE and build tool biases, but I am recommending Maven as a build
 tool, AspectJ Maven as a build plugin and then either of Eclipse or IDEA as integrated development environments (IDEs).
 Why? Because Maven + (Eclipse or IDEA) probably has the most complete tooling and best end-to-end user experience for
-AspectJ developers. Because I am also by far the most active AspectJ and Spring AOP supporter on StackOverflow, you also
