With so much development on web-based applications the desktop hasn't gotten much love in the last decade. Frameworks based on the popular Ruby on Rails framework have sprouted up all over the web to help make developing web applications a zip. Out of the growing popularity of the Groovy dynamic programming language for the Java platform a new framework has spawned.
