Since you have already installed and activated Groovy, Gradle is enabled in NetBeans 11 simply by installing the Gradle plugin.

All NetBeans plugins are installed through the Tools > Plugins screen. To install the Gradle plugin:

  • On the Plugins screen click the Available Plugins tab.
  • Click the Name column header to sort the entries by name.

  • Locate the entry named Gradle, check it, then click the Install button:

    gradlePlugin

  • The Gradle plugin will be downloaded and installed. No restart will be required if that is the only plugin being installed.

To verify that the installation of the Gradle plugin was successful:

  • On the Plugins screen click the Installed tab.
  • Check the Show Details checkbox.

  • Scroll down and verify that there is an entry for Gradle:

    installedPlugins

    @Thufir [1] I just reinstalled the Gradle plugin again, and it worked fine, so I'm not sure why you can't see it. [2] Perhaps try clicking the **Check for Newest** button on the **Available Plugins** tab first if you can't see an entry for Gradle? [3] Another thing to try is clearing the cache. See [How to clear the cache in NetBeans](https://stackoverflow.com/q/8689780/2985643). It may not help, but trying won't do any harm. [4] Another approach would be to install the **Groovy and Gradle** plugin instead, if you can see that. It's in my first screen shot just below the **Gradle** entry. – skomisa Jun 10 '19 at 23:51
  • @Thufir Also take a look at [Groovy and Grail plugin is missing in Netbeans IDE 9](https://stackoverflow.com/q/54490958/2985643). I realize you are on NB 11, not NB9, but it still might be helpful. – skomisa Jun 10 '19 at 23:57
  • It seems to be installed now, I saw a message when NB launched and it ran some updates. I'm futzing with it now: https://stackoverflow.com/q/56577513/262852 – Thufir Jun 13 '19 at 09:35
