Yes seriously, having to have an Internet connection, to get anything
started is a serious problem for many people. When at home it is not a
problem, when on the road it is a ####### disaster.

As with Maven, Gradle, (anything in the JVM-verse with artefact
dependencies) you have to pre-plan having all the artefacts you might
want before leaving the Internet. Thus no serendipitous starting of new
work.

Until the Internet is a high speed resource free for everyone at all
times everywhere, please do not hardwire into build tools assumptions
that it is there Internet connectivity as Maven originally did.
