Interested in Learning Groovy

Post by Amishman »

I would like to learn Groovy but I am having some trouble finding beginner information online. Everything that I can find assumes I already know Java but, unfortunately, I don't. I took a Visual Basics class and a Linux shell scripting class a couple of years ago but that's it. Do I have to learn Java first? Do you happen to know if there is something online that teaches Groovy to an absolute beginner?

Hi Amishman,

Groovy is a "dynamic language for the Java platform", so the two do very much run hand in hand, but there is a decent amount of info out there that will help get you going even if you're not familiar with Java.

Here are some links that might help put you in the right direction:
