gradle

sdk install gradle

lazybones

sdk install lazybones

Register the griffon-lazybones-templates by editing $USER_HOME/.lazybones/config.groovy and adding the following:

bintrayRepositories = [
    "griffon/griffon-lazybones-templates",
    "pledbrook/lazybones-templates"
]

I installed Babun on Windows 7. I had to put config.groovy in /c/Users/myusername/.lazybones/config.groovy

Regarding 'sdk install gradle'... I was using cygwin on Windows10. After getting failure error, a google search revealed that 'curl' was using the native Windows10 version of curl. Had to use cygwin installer to install cygwin specific version of curl.
