Presentation Information

Groovy has been gaining ground in mainstream Java circles. Admittedly it’s gotten a lot of help from Grails (the Ruby on Rails inspired web framework), but Groovy itself is an extremely useful and powerful tool/language to have in your programmer utility belt. This presentation will present a basic introduction of what Groovy is and what it can do for the everyday Java developer.
