Why Grails?

Grails (www.grails.org) is a dynamic web-application framework built in Java and
Groovy, leveraging best of breed APIs from the Java EE sphere including Spring,
Hibernate and SiteMesh. Grails brings to Java and Groovy developers the joys of
convention-based rapid development while allowing them to leverage their
existing knowledge and capitalize on the proven and performant APIs Java
developers have been using for years.

Grails offers everything you need for rapid prototyping out of the box,
including a web server (Jetty) and an embedded database (HSQLDB). You are,
however, just a single command away from deploying your Grails app to Tomcat,
JBoss, or any other JEE-compliant application server. Grails enables IT teams
to establish fast development cycles through agile methodologies, to deliver
quality applications in reduced amounts of time by applying principles like
Convention over Configuration to simplify the development tasks and focusing on
what really matters: the business of your users and the ease of use of the
application you will deliver to them.
