  • The Rails web framework has taken the software industry by storm, offering legions of web developers the ability to create web sites faster and more efficiently than ever before. But taking advantage of Rails means learning an entirely new paradigm, in addition to the language Rails is built upon: Ruby. Accordingly, other developer communities have implemented their own versions of Rails, but built using their preferred language. For millions of Java developers, this native framework is Grails, and the Java-centric scripting language its built upon: Groovy.

    Beginning Groovy and Grails introduces Java developers to this popular framework and scripting language by guiding readers through the creation of a series of real-world projects. Each project introduces a new facet of Grails and Groovy, and affords readers the ability to download and experiment with the code. Authored by industry veterans Christopher Judd, Joseph Faisal Nusairat, and Jim Shingler, readers are treated not only to profound knowledge of the topic, but also to considerable insight shared as a result of the authors’ combined decades of Java experience.

  • JBoss Seam represents the primary counter to the hot and successful Spring Framework and perhaps even Ruby on Rails framework. The open source lightweight Java EE 5 standards based JBoss Seam framework is a part of this second wave of open source lightweight Java that’s taking place.

    Beginning JBoss Seam: From Novice to Professional aims to take advantage of this hot area, and aims to be first beginning book and one of maybe two books to market in this likely lucrative area.

    This book gives an overview of Seam related JSF and EJB 3 as found in Java EE 5; provides information on the tools to make development with Seam easier as well as a functioning in depth demo to truly learn how to use Seam; and gives tips and tricks to using Seam.
