Event Details

This JUG Session will introduce you into Grails, the Groovy web framework that uses Convention over Configuration to make your daily web tasks easy and fun again. During this session, we will develop a basic Grails web application and along this development Sven will explain the core technologies you find in Grails. This includes the usage of the command line and Netbeans as IDE, domain-modeling and queries using GORM, creating views (scaffolding, Groovy Server Pages), using Grails Controllers and lot's more. We will finally push the app into a platform as a service hosting environment and have the app publicly available on the Internet.

Speaker Bio

Sven Haiges is a Java/Groovy developer and he moved into the Bay Area about one year ago. He currently lives in Sunnyvale and works for Yahoo!'s Connected Life group. After playing around with the early versions of Grails in 2006, he made the decision that Grails is truly the Java web framework that will be the next big thing. To learn Grails, he soon started podcasting about Groovy and Grails and since then he has produced around 70 podcast episodes. Sven spoke at the first Groovy & Grails Conference in London and recently relaunched the Grails Podcast website at http://www.grailspodcast.com.
