Agreed, but I think that's not entirely on them, but rather the wider JVM & mobile dev ecosystems.

Still better than XCode which regularly looses syntax highlighting for no reason in 2020.

Gradle isn't their product though. They just have to interop with it.

Android Studio is a Google product built on top of IntelliJ.

Gradle with kotlin script is elegant and order of magnitude more powerful than npm & ci
