GR8Conf Europe 2011
Event Info
Description
GR8Conf is an affordable conference dedicated to the Groovy dynamic language, the Grails web framework, the Griffon Swing framework, and other great technologies, such as Gradle, Spock, GPars, and more.
This year, the conference is growing. We kick of the conference with a university day. Here we have two tracks, one intermediate and one advanced, with workshops and hands-on training. The intermediate will kickstart your Groovy and Grails development skills with a Groovy workshop, followed by a Grails workshop. The advanced track will feature an AST transformations workshop, followed by a Grails plugin workshop. The university day is optional.
The conference will feature updates from Groovy, Grails, Griffon, Gradle and others. There will be case studies from various companies, telling about real life projects, and there will be lots of sessions covering various topics in the Groovy ecosystem. To cram this in to two days, the conference is going to be two-tracked.
To top it off we feature Hackergarten — an open event, where you can come and hack your favorite Open Source project. Hackergarten is sponsored by Canoo Engineering and you can attend even if you are not a conference attendee.
