  • First practical “real world” code cookbook that includes both Groovy language and its Groovy-based Web framework, Grails
  • Groovy and Grails remain early in their adoption cycle, but is starting to attract more and more of the corporate customer who would prefer Groovy and Grails for their already existing Java-based legacy IT infrastructure than to “change” all together in order to use Ruby on Rails, at least as perceived
  • Groovy/Grails can integrate with other hot Java technologies like Spring Framework and Hibernate
