Research direction

Start by comparing the root build.gradle with the build.gradle files in subproject1 and subproject2 to understand how each project declares Node dependencies. Define the desired behavior as sharing a single Node download across both subprojects, then look for existing plugin configuration or tests covering multi-module builds.
