# Shadow

Gradle plugin for creating fat/uber JARs with support for package relocation.

> [!NOTE]\
> Previously this plugin was developed by [@johnrengelman](https://github.com/johnrengelman) and published under the
> ID [`com.github.johnrengelman.shadow`][johnrengelman's]
> before maintenance was transferred to the [GradleUp organization](https://github.com/GradleUp) to ensure future
> development, see [#908](https://github.com/GradleUp/shadow/issues/908).
>
> If you are still using the old plugin ID in your build script, we recommend to switch to the new plugin ID [
`com.gradleup.shadow`][gradleup's]
> and update to the latest version to receive all the latest bug fixes and improvements.
