BUILD FAILED in 9s
Failed to build plugin @nativescript/firebase : 
Error: Command gradlew.bat failed with exit code 1

But in my platforms/android/gradle.properties file I have:

android.enableJetifier=true
android.useAndroidX=true

Versions

"@nativescript/core": "7.0.6",
"@nativescript/firebase": "^11.1.3",

I've followed multiple guides about AndroidX but it looks like the bits I added to gradle.properties are not being picked up?

I've tried with "@nativescript/core": "7.3.0" & "@nativescript/core": "8.1.1" but no change.
