# Introduction to gradle.properties
**gradle.properties** is usually set up and new when we make a new project. This one contains some default settings like the ones below.

org.gradle.jvmargs=-Xmx2048m -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8
org.gradle.parallel=true
android.useAndroidX=true
// Automatically convert third-party libraries to use AndroidX
android.enableJetifier=true

# What can it be used for?

## Store Constants
We can save up some **key-value information** that can be **used in our build.gradle** in app or module. The values **can also be used in applied/import .gradle files** in build.gradle.

### Set Up Key-Value
>[color=orange]

### Apply Key-Value in Build.Gradle
>[color=orange]

### Check usage in BuildConfig
>[color=orange]

## Store Booleans
We can use gradle.properties key-value booleans as a way to decide our if statements in build.gradle file.

**gradle.properties:**

isModule=true

**build.gradle:**
As example in implementations:

if (isModule.toBoolean()) {
    implementation project(':FootballLib:football')
}
