Is there a process to upgrade dependencies?

[frojasg]

I was looking for a simple example project I could use as a template for a small kotlin + Gradle project. This repo looks exactly what I wanted. However, all the versions look super outdated. For instance, gradle/hello-world is on kotlin 1.3.10 and gradle 4.10.2.

I was thinking about sending a PR to fix that example, but I wasn't sure if you wanted to keep all examples in the same versions. Also, I imagine it's time-consuming to upgrade all of them.

• Do you have a process to upgrade dependencies?
• Should I send a PR and upgrade one project at a time or one big PR?
• Is there a way to make this less painful?

Also, I noticed there's no CI enabled. Is there a process to validate example projects are not broken?
