I agree. As a casual Scala developer I feel like SBT has always been a disaster. Does anyone know why Gradle isn't more popular for Scala development? I've had generally very positive experiences using it with Java.

because gradle is slow, and the dsl is a disaster compared to sbt

SBT's IDE support isn't great by any means, but it's way ahead of what I've ever seen with Gradle.
