Presentation: "Groovy and Grails In Depth"
Time:
Thursday 14:15 - 15:15
Location:
Westminster Suite
Abstract: Over the past year the Groovy language and the Grails web framework
have surged in popularity. Consistently the dynamic language of choice
for Java developers, Groovy has seen a number of important milestones
including the release of Groovy 1.6.
The Grails web framework continues to be a shining example of what can
be achieved using Groovy's ability to define Domain Specific Languages
(DSLs). By providing a higher level abstraction over the Java EE
platform, Grails provides the productivity of other popular dynamic
language platforms like Ruby on Rails and Django, but designed
specifically for the Java platform.
In this session, the project lead of Grails, Graeme Rocher, will take
you through a short introduction to Groovy and Grails followed by a
code-driven walkthrough of building a real Grails application. Grails
is specifically designed to make the life of the Java EE developer
easier and this session will show you how you can take advantage of
Grails to boost productivity on the Java platform.
