Here's the abstract:
Start building powerful apps that take advantage of the dynamic scripting capabilities of the Groovy language. This talk covers Groovy fundamentals, such as using Groovy tools, working with the GDK, and some popular Groovy idioms. We’ll also cover more advanced aspects of Groovy, such as design patterns, writing DSLs in Groovy, and functional programming concepts in Groovy. If there’s still time, we’ll talk a little while about other great Groovy tools like Spock, Ratpack, Grails, and Gradle.
Adam is a software developer and author. Check out his books at at Packt Publishing,
