Review comment:
> Can you be more specific about what you're saying with implementation
vs compile? When are transitive dependencies included and when are they not?
You could technically just replace the old `compile` configuration with the
new `api` configuration, but according to [Gradle
docs](https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/java_library_plugin.html#java_library_plugin)
it is better to use `implementation`, since compilation will be faster and
other dependencies don't **leak** into your classpath during compilation. Below
is the section from the Gradle docs that I'm referring to:
> Dependencies appearing in the api configurations will be transitively
exposed to consumers of the library, and as such will appear on the compile
classpath of consumers. Dependencies found in the implementation configuration
will, on the other hand, not be exposed to consumers, and therefore not leak
into the consumers' compile classpath. This comes with several benefits:
>* dependencies do not leak into the compile classpath of consumers anymore,
so you will never accidentally depend on a transitive dependency
>* faster compilation thanks to reduced classpath size
>* less recompilations when implementation dependencies change: consumers
would not need to be recompiled
>* cleaner publishing: when used in conjunction with the new maven-publish
plugin, Java libraries produce POM files that distinguish exactly between what
is required to compile against the library and what is required to use the
library at runtime (in other words, don’t mix what is needed to compile the
library itself and what is needed to compile against the library).
