Groovy and Grails seminar - G2 and Springsource Tool Suite

Here is another interview from our Groovy and Grails seminar. Brent Baxter had been conducting some research into G2 and the Springsource Tool Suite (STS). I asked Brent how they worked together and if this was advantageous to a developer.



As you can see here, we certainly try to gather reflections from our attendees when we have them "captive" at a seminar or conference. People are beginning to run in the other direction when they see me with the Chariot video camera in my hand...

Wrap up from our Grails/Groovy Seminar

Last week Chariot Solutions hosted a one-day seminar around Groovy and Grails. Or Grails and Groovy if that is your preference.

Chariot has been trying to have two events a year, the larger Emerging Technologies for the Enterprise in the spring, and a smaller event in the fall. We have tried to use the fall event as a way to see how much support there is in the development community for newer technologies. We did this with Spring, Ruby, Cloud, SOA and now Groovy. We found the Groovy and Grails community to be very vocal and enthusiastic.

Over the next week, we will be posting videos from the seminar to give you a better understanding of why Chariot will be paying a little more attention to this framework and language.
