No matter what all the other commenters are saying here maven and gradle are awful. Cargo is much more pleasant to use.

In my opinion cargo > maven/Gradle > most other build/dependency systems I've used, including setuptools, cmake, and others.

I didn't have terribly many issues with Gradle and consider it pretty good. What about it do you consider awful and how does Cargo solve those issues? What features does Gradle lack that stick out to you in Cargo?
