In this section you are introduced to the basic concepts behind a Grails application. As we progress we will show you how to test what we are building.
Plugins are a huge part of the success of Grails. They provide a lot of functionality out of the box to get you going quickly.
The web is powered by rest APIs and Grails 4 provides you quick and easy ways to build performant APIs to power your mobile apps or websites.
Reactive is all the hotness right now. We'll go over what a reactive application is and how Grails makes it easy to use this pattern in your applications.
How you deploy, and maintain your Grails applications is just as import as how you build it. We will go over battle proven deployment and operation scenarios.
Here is where we will use everything we've learned in previous sections to build out a more complex web application.
