Bazel, an open-source build tool developed by Google, offers a robust solution for accelerating Java project builds by leveraging its extensibility and scalability. This tool, suitable for organizations of any size, reduces build configuration time by using cached artifacts and rebuilding only the modified code, making it efficient for complex codebases. The tutorial outlines the steps to create a Java project using Bazel, including setting up the workspace, adding external and local dependencies, and configuring build files. It further explains how to generate and simplify dependency graphs using Bazel queries, which aid in visualizing project dependencies. The tutorial also covers packaging the Java binary for deployment, offering a comprehensive guide to integrating Bazel into Java development workflows. Additionally, it highlights Earthly as a complementary build automation tool that integrates with Bazel, providing further enhancements to continuous integration pipelines.
