Groovy programming language tutorials and howtos.
Sealed types, switch expressions, and record types. Here are just a few new features introduced in the latest Groovy 4.0 release. In this video, I want to show you ten things that make Groovy 4.0 amazing. And to keep this video short, we’re not going to dive deep into each of them. Instead, I intend to give you a quick overview of the new features.

Sometimes you need to generate a random password (or just random string of any kind.) Today I will show you how to do it with a single line of code in Groovy 3 (or newer.)
What is the most popular Groovy library, framework, or a tool? I surveyed 308 Groovy community members, and here are the results.
One of the most popular map-related operation in any programming language is merging two (or more) maps. In this short blog post, I explain how to do it in the Groovy programming language, starting from the simplest + operation, up to more advanced use cases of merging nested maps and using runtime metaprogramming to add a merge method to the Map interface. Enjoy reading and learning!
Dynamic type inference in Groovy might be tricky. Add generic type erasure to it, and you can find yourself in trouble. In this blog post, I would like to show you such use case and explain what happens under the hood. Enjoy reading!
Groovy 3 helps you write less, but more secure code. Today I want to show you one of the features added in the latest release - @NullCheck annotation.
Groovy 3 was released a few days ago[1], and it introduced a lot of important new features to the language. Today I want to show you a few useful improvements in the GDK. We will take a closer look into methods like takeRight, takeAfter, takeBetween, and a few others that were added to the java.lang.String class.
Groovy String API offers many useful methods to make working with strings much more pleasant. Today I would like to show you three, not so very popular, yet convenient methods. Let’s jump straight into it!
I started reading "Cracking the Coding Interview, 6th Edition" book recently and it inspired me to experiment a bit. It’s been a while since I implemented the quicksort algorithm the last time, and I did that in Haskell. I remember some old and imperative implementations in Java, but I never tried to implement it in Groovy. Let’s give it a try!
