A walkthrough of publishing Android Archive (AAR) libraries to Maven Central using a custom Gradle script called maven_push.gradle. The author reviews existing solutions (Gradle upload task, maven-publish plugin, gradle-nexus-plugin, mvn-repo) and their limitations for Android projects, then presents a modified approach based on mvn-repo that automatically selects snapshot vs. release repositories and reads POM metadata from gradle.properties files, keeping build.gradle scripts clean and reusable.
