Do you mean using the same catalog in buildSrc and production?

<https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/platforms.html#sec:importing-catalog-from-file>

Sorry if you missunderstood, I'm not asking how to use version catalogs, just what is the best practice between using version catalogs or defining a map of strings for dependencies in the `buildSrc` package (or just versions in constants)

oh, use version catalogs :slightly_smiling_face:

Do you have any explication about this ? :slightly_smiling_face:

well, the docs explain it already, but if you're looking into more design decisions, here's what I wrote back then: <https://gradle.cloud.xwiki.com/xwiki/bin/view/Main/Design%20specs/Dependency%20management/Version%20catalog/Version%20catalogs%20-%20Main%20spec/>

2 main advantages: type safe accessors, and doesn't invalidate the build when you change a version.
