Groovy Tutorial Step 1

I am going to start a tutorial on using Groovy and Grails. Groovy can integrate with your Java Code, and can make coding much easier and cleaner. You can change the extension of a Java class to a Groovy extension, and your code will still compile. Groovy will drastically reduce the amount of code you would normally need to write which will make your work much more efficient. IntelliJ is the better IDE to use for Groovy, but you need to purchase a license. Eclipse, however, has a plugin that can be used for Groovy where you don't need to purchase a license. Grails is the web application framework that is used with Groovy, but we will get into that later.

So lets get started.
