Building Twitter with Grails in 40 minutes

without comments

Last night at the Groovy Group we had Graeme Roche from SpringSource and lead developer of Grails give a webinar titled “Building Twitter with Grails in 40 minutes“. We were all impressed, not only with how Grails leverages Spring and third party plugins but also with the Twitter application that Graeme was building. He gave a new meaning to TDD — Twitter Driven Development. Each new feature that he added allowed him to tweet about it in the application that he was building. It was evident that he enjoys talking about Grails and connecting with user groups, even the flu wasn’t going to keep him away from giving the talk!
