Groovy and Grails
Introduction
Groovy:
Groovy course for Java developers. Following this course, participants will be able to benefit from the de facto standard for dynamic languages on the Java platform, and enhance and simplify their future source code–in particular database access, web services, modularization of GUI components and much more besides. During the course, theory is examined in greater depth using examples from developers’ daily work.
Grails:
Grails course for Java developers. This course introduces you to the basic principles of Grails. You will learn effective usage and best practices, enabling you to achieve not only rapid results, but also the development of durable and robust solutions. Theory is examined in greater depth during the course using examples. In these two days you will get to create a complete, database-based web application.
Advanced Grails:
Getting started in Grails is easy, and the subsequent steps towards larger applications are likewise very well supported. With increasing requirements comes the need to better understand the background, to embed Grails applications into existing landscapes, and all in all to draw greater advantages from the rich features of the platform. If you know the basics of Grails and wish to build on these, then this is the right course for you.
