What is Groovy?

Groovy is a powerful, optionally typed and dynamic language for the Java platform. It aims to improve developer productivity thanks to a concise, familiar and easy to learn syntax. It integrates smoothly with any Java program, and delivers powerful features like closures, builders, and dynamic typing, while still allowing static compilation and type checking when desired. It is often used for scripting, automation, testing, and building domain-specific languages (DSLs).
