Session Details
Building Rich Applications with Groovy's SwingBuilder
Presentation
Building Rich Swing applications seems to be a more difficult task that building a web counterpart, but in reality it is not so thanks to SwingBuilder, Groovy's answer to building swing apps with ease. SwingBuilder leverages the builder pattern, letting you concentrate in the business at hand, the builder will take care of assembling the UI's hierarchy, thus rendering the code easily understandable for both developer and machine. Basic knowledge of the Groovy language is desired for attendees but anyone with dynamic language experience should have no problem picking up the pace.
