Groovy is an object-oriented dynamic programming language developed for Java platform. It can be used for developing web applications, desktop applications and other embedded system software. Since it runs on Java Virtual Machine (JVM) any developers with knowledge of Java can set their hands quickly on Groovy. The code flexibility and simple syntax provided by Groovy has made it a popular choice among developers today. Groovy is supported by the Apache Software Foundation and the Groovy community that is ready to assist you on any related issues.
