apache/groovy — Apache Groovy: A powerful multi-faceted programming language for the JVM platform

Description and use

Apache Groovy is an agile, dynamic language for the Java Virtual Machine that seamlessly integrates with existing Java code while adding powerful features such as concise syntax, closures, and metaprogramming capabilities. It enables developers to write expressive, script‑like programs that compile to bytecode, run on any JVM, and interoperate with Java libraries and frameworks. The project is open‑source under the Apache License and serves as a versatile tool for scripting, testing, domain‑specific language creation, and full‑stack application development.
