Developing Web Apps with Grails
Learn how to build web applications quickly and easily with Grails. Grails combines the power of Groovy with traditional frameworks like Spring and Hibernate to simplify web development.
In this workshop, after reviewing Groovy, we'll build a small but non-trivial web application using Grails. We'll use controllers, domain classes, services, plugins, testing, and more.
