Griffon in Action

HIGHLIGHT

The first and only book devoted entirely to Griffon, a Groovy-based

software development framework.

 

DESCRIPTION

Griffon, an agile framework based on the Groovy language, makes

user interface development dramatically faster and easier. In many

respects, Griffon is for desktop development what Grails is for web

development.

Griffon in Action is a comprehensive tutorial written for Java

developers who want a more productive approach to UI development.

In this book, readers will immediately dive into Griffon. After a

Griffon orientation and a quick Groovy tutorial, they’ll start building

examples that explore Griffon's high productivity approach to Swing

development. The book covers declarative view development, like the

one provided by JavaFX Script, as well as the structure, architecture

and life cycle of Java application development.
