Yes, a composite build is an alternative to `buildSrc`. I generally prefer using a composite build unless I have a reason like the need to monkey-patch a plugin.

just been debating on switching from `buildSrc` since I've started thinking it behave weird sometimes... although I'm not sure how to set it up to otherwise be like buildsrc right now. I've never set up kotlin plugin authoring before though

so... if I do it, I can probably figure it out...

Not much special necessary.
Just have your build for example in `gradle/build-logic`, do the `includeBuild` within `pluginManagement { ... }` in the settings script and then apply your plugin.
Other than with `buildSrc` that could even provide a settings plugin.

is there a reason to put it in the `gradle` directory?
