Hi all

I have started learning Groovy but felt that not much work has been done on it. The starter guide given in Groovy website is oK but it doesnt gives much information. I am in need of some good Groovy related stuff which is self explanatory and easy to understand.

Please suggest some links here.

There is load of Groovy examples from http://groovy.codehaus.org/ , which is the 'mother of all links' about Groovy.
See for example
  • http://groovy.codehaus.org/Cookbook+Examples
  • http://groovy.codehaus.org/User+Guide
  • http://groovy.codehaus.org/Advanced+Usage+Guide
  • http://pleac.sourceforge.net/pleac_groovy/index.html
  • and the Gina examples: http://www.manning.com/koenig/Groovy-in-Action-source-code.zip


  • enjoy groovin'

    Yeah, as someone who was an early adopter of groovy at my workplace, I found that the online tutorials were um, not so helpful. I blame that on my own lack of understanding of the groovy way to approach a problem though. I found that GINA was a complete overview, or Groovy Recipes for a shorter and less thorough intro to quick and dirty solutions. In the end I finally downloaded the javadocs

    I liked the "Groovy Series" episodes of the Grails Podcast a lot.
    http://www.grailspodcast.com/blog/tag/groovyseries

    Following the talking and reading the code at snipplr.com was almost like watching a screencast. (http://snipplr.com/all/language/groovy/tags/groovyseries).

    There are also some great videos on Groovy by Scott Davis (among others) at the No Fluff Just Stuff website:

    Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
