02.11.2010 – Canoo RIA Suite just got easier
In Spring 2010, the Basel-based company Canoo AG launched the new RIA Suite, which enables companies and software producers to develop capable, interactive and highly efficient Rich Internet Applications (RIA). The Canoo RIA Suite is known for combining beauty and productivity for web applications that have high user interaction demands. You can use RIA Suite with any Java Enterprise platform, but Canoo has chosen to integrate with one popular platform in particular: the Grails web application framework.
Basel, November 2nd, 2010 – Grails has recently become an extremely popular choice for web application developers and Canoo has been part of this movement since its early days. Using the Canoo RIA Suite as the presentation layer of your Grails application is as simple as issuing a single command; all dependencies including a 90 day evaluation license will be installed and you are ready to go. No questions asked. For more details seehttp://www.grails.org/ULC+Plugin. Along with the Grails plugin comes ULCBuilder which dramatically simplifies the way that you define views and actions in the Canoo RIA Suite. It leverages the power of Groovy, a Java language extension, in order to make presentation code declarative, short, concise, and even easier to construct and maintain. If you are already a Groovy developer, you will just love it. Please find more details underhttp://github.com/canoo/ulcbuilder. Both the Grails ULC plugin and the ULCBuilder are open-source projects available under the Apache 2 license.
