title: How do you handle web hosted .jar-files as dependencies in Gradle?
body: <p>I'm pretty new to the JVM World, and I find Maven and Gradle quite extraordinary pieces of tools to handle build and dependencies. </p>
  
  <p>I need to incorporate two jar-files in my solution. They are not hosted in any Maven repository. Must i use a libs-folder and share the files among the developers or in the repo?</p>
  
  <p>The jar files are not controlled by me, and i do not want to go through the hustle of putting up something on Maven Central or something similar. I trust the url of the jar files to be quite persistent.</p>
