Introduction to Grails
Grails is a convention-over-configuration application development framework, written in the Groovy language and backed by the power of Spring, Hibernate, and other open source APIs. With a simple yet elegant approach, it has rapidly become a tool of choice for building powerful, rich applications in a short amount of time. This one-day survey of Grails provides enough experimentation and exposure so that you can start building useful applications immediately.
