We want you to develop with a dynamic language, which, you can use in current or future developments, and give you productivity bonuses for you and your team.

Our training introduces you to development with Groovy language in a very practical way, through examples made by you you will learn what the fundamental elements of language are, which can be used to use in projects that you currently have events in Java or future projects thatYou want to do. Learning Groovy does not mean throwing everything and starting again with this language, on the contrary, it is about integrating it with the ecosystem of elements that you currently have in your applications.
