Description Adrien Guichard 2020-08-19 06:25:24 CEST

Providing Groovy for a distribution is important because Groovy allows scripting programming model, supporting shebang, among other things.

Groovy provides scripting capabilities with a portable dependency management (Grab) and unique syntax across all platforms. It also provides application framework like with Grails or Micronaut. It support many data storage backends via Gorm (Hibernates, Mongodb, Neo4j, Cassandra, ...).

Groovy "just" requires Jdk8+. 

Mageia provides Groovy 2.4.8, but the latest stable Groovy release is Groovy 3.0.5.
