./gradlew build

Important notes
-
You do not need to install Gradle to build Bisq. The
gradlew
shell script will install it for you, if necessary. -
Bisq currently works with JDK 11 only. JDK 12 and above are not supported. You can find out which version you have with:
javac -version
If you do not have JDK 11 installed, check out scripts in the scripts directory or download it manually from https://jdk.java.net/archive/.
Running Bisq
