About the Books
Groovy Goodness Notebook
Experience the Groovy programming language through code snippets
In 2009 I started to write small blog posts about Groovy at Messages from mrhaki. The posts contained code samples of cool Groovy features I just didn't want to forget. The blog posts turned out to be a useful resource for people learning and using Groovy in their every day programming.
The Groovy Goodness Notebook contains the blog posts about Groovy previously mentioned on my blog. The posts have been edited slightly so they can be used for the book. The book gives a broad overview of all the great features we can find in the Groovy language.
