Groovy and Grails for Java Developers Event

March 15, 2011 - PRLog -- Groovy is Java on steroids - a dynamic language that is deeply embedded in Java. Add Hibernate and Spring Framework, then you have Grails, which provides development of web applications a boost.

Many Java developers are looking with envy in their eyes, the dynamic opportunities in Ruby and Python, but can not leave their Java platform. That they do not, because Groovy is an extension of Java. Groovy is bytecode compatible with Java, and Java source code is Groovy source code, but a few exceptions. Groovy is Java on steroids.

Grails is to Groovy what Rails is for Ruby - a complete application stack. But unlike Rails, you should not leave his thorough knowledge of Java APIs which you are accustomed to use.
Grails is based on proven technologies: Hibernate, Spring Framework and Site Mesh. There is Grails focus on functionality. Principles as agile and DRY (Do not repeat yourself) admired. Grails is easy to get started and you can within minutes have a web application in the air.

For Grails, there are over 500 plugins that can be used when developing its application. This means that, for example. security and login can be deployed in minutes.

The lecture will be primarily with fingers buried in code, with many examples of things you can do better and smarter in Groovy, rather than in Java. Finally built a small web application in Grails, where I will demonstrate the benefits of Grails.
