Grails

Backend Web Framework

Grails is an open source web application framework that uses the Apache Groovy programming language (which is in turn based on the Java platform). It is intended to be a high-productivity framework by following the coding by convention paradigm, providing a stand-alone development environment and hiding much of the configuration detail from the developer.
