Grails Diary - Week 17 in 2015

27 April 2015

The first release candidate for Gradle 2.4 is now available, bringing huge performance improvements and lots more. See the release notes for more info.

Version 1.0.2 of the Grooscript Gradle plugin has been released! It is available from Bintray: https://bintray.com/chiquitinxx/grooscript/org.grooscript%3Agrooscript-gradle-plugin/1.0.2!

Søren Glasius reminds everyone, that you should remember to star the Github mirrored Groovy language repository.

The Android app for the NY Times, that is using Groovy has been live for a few weeks now

If you are afraid of GVM messing around with your environment variable, you can let GW - A gvm wrapper handle it :)

Greach has worked hard to get the first videos ready, and you will find links for them in the video-section.

Most of the agenda for GR8conf EU is now in place. If you are a Groovy and/or Grails user group, you can contact info@gr8conf.org, and the conference can make a discount on tickets for your members. You can of course still buy your ticket for GR8conf EU
