I don't have an application folder and also there is an error

build.gradle - 

group 'com.teamtreehouse'
version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'

buildscript{
    repositories{
        mavenCentral()
    }
    dependencies{
        classpath 'org.springframwork.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.2.6.RELEASE'
    }
}

apply plugin: 'java'
apply plugin: 'spring-boot'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    compile 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:1.2.6.RELEASE'
}

error :

Error:Could not find org.springframwork.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.2.6.RELEASE.
Searched in the following locations:

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframwork/boot/spring-boot-gradle-plugin/1.2.6.RELEASE/spring-boot-gradle-plugin-1.2.6.RELEASE.pom

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/springframwork/boot/spring-boot-gradle-plugin/1.2.6.RELEASE/spring-boot-gradle-plugin-1.2.6.RELEASE.jar

project :

I do realise that 1.2.6.RELEASE is an older version and I changed it to - 'org.springframework.boot', name: 'spring-boot-starter-web', version: '2.0.0.M7'

Which I think the the newest version but still same error .

In case you or anyone else is still struggling with this, this code is what worked for me:

group 'com.teamtreehouse' version '1.0-SNAPSHOT'

buildscript { repositories{ mavenCentral() } dependencies{ classpath 'org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-gradle-plugin:1.5.10.RELEASE' } }

apply plugin: 'java' apply plugin: 'spring-boot'

sourceCompatibility = 1.8

repositories { mavenCentral() }

dependencies { compile "org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web:1.5.10.RELEASE"

}

Thanks a lot! Initially I got a whole bunch of errors and exceptions but this worked great.

The teacher notes in the previous video said that buildscript was outdated and shouldn't be used. Regarding the missing Tasks/Application folder in the Gradle panel; I didn't have it first, but suddenly it appeared. I guess related to the sync finished.
