| {groovy-www}[Groovy] is an agile and dynamic language for the Java Virtual Machine. It builds upon the strengths of Java, but has additional power features inspired by languages like Python, Ruby and Smalltalk. |
| |
| Groovy makes modern programming features available to Java developers with almost-zero learning curve as well as supports Domain-Specific Languages and other compact syntax so your code becomes easy to read and maintain. |
| |
| Groovy makes writing shell and build scripts easy with its powerful processing primitives, OO abilities and an Ant DSL. |
| |
| It also increases developer productivity by reducing scaffolding code when developing web, GUI, database or console applications. Groovy simplifies testing by supporting unit testing and mocking out-of-the-box. Groovy also seamlessly integrates with all existing Java classes and libraries and compiles straight to Java bytecode so you can use it anywhere you can use Java. |

| == Sources for the Groovy website |
| |
| This project builds the Groovy website. It is using {gradle}[Gradle] and is fully statically generated. |
| |
| Build is image:{build-icon}[build status, link={groovy-ci}]. |
| |
| == Generating the site |
| |
| ---- |
| git clone https://github.com/groovy/groovy-website |
| cd groovy-website |
| ./gradlew webzip |
| ---- |
| |
| The output can be found in the `build` directory: |
| |
| ---- |
| build |
| |---- site : the generated static website |
| |---- reports : deadlinks report |
| |---- distributions : zip of the website |
| ---- |
| |
| == Contributing |
| |
| The website is generated thanks to Gradle and makes use of the {markupte}[Markup Template Engine]. The structure of the |
| project consists of two modules: |
| |
| ---- |
| generator : utility classes and model for generating the website |
| site : the website itself |
| ---- |
| |
| The website subproject consists of: |
| |
| ---- |
| src/main/site : sources for the static website |
| |--- assets : static resources such as images, CSS files, ... |
| |--- html : elements that templates include as raw HTML contents |
| |--- includes : includes used by templates |
| |--- layouts : layouts for the various pages |
| |--- pages : individual pages |
| build.gradle : website weaving logic |
| ---- |
| |
| Additional details can be found in this http://melix.github.io/blog/2014/07/new-groovy-website.html[blog post]. |
| |
| == Continuous Integration |
| |
| The official CI server runs {groovy-ci}[here] (login as user guest and leave the password blank) and is sponsored by http://www.jetbrains.com[JetBrains]. |
| |
| WARNING: The website is continuously updated from the _master_ branch. This means that *every merge on master is immediately published*. Changes that need to be |
| applied on a specific date need to be done on a dedicated branch. |
