Let Me Tell You About Grails…

Web development is a rewarding experience. Building an application that can run from anywhere in the world is pretty awesome. Even in a corporate environment, you can deliver new features to your users, no matter where they are located, without ever touching their computer. It’s a beautiful thing. Consider also what you can build: the potential for creativity on the Web is unlimited.

The Java platform brings even more power to the party.
