Jodd – The Unbearable Lightness of Java
Do you want powerful jvm environment and exceptional java ecosystem? Do you want a java-like language (easy learning curve) but want to write less and in a more elegant way? Do you want a powerful scripting language? Do you want to work with consolidated technologies like hibernate and spring but in a more comfortable way? So why don't you choose Groovy and Grails?! I've been working with it for the last 2 years after many years as a J2EE developer and now i can't think to start a J2EE project without it!
