Setting Up to Build the SteamSensor Application
The example projects shipped with the Java SDK v.7.0 and later provide and use gradlew instead of relying on a particular version of Gradle being installed on your machine. Using gradlew shell scripts automates the installation of the correct version of Gradle that is required by the project. After extracting the distribution bundle, confirm that the JAVA_HOME environment variable points to a valid installation of a JDK 8 or JDK 11. Finally, import the entities and mashup into your ThingWorx Platform.
