With this digital Early Release edition of Programming Grails, you get the book bundle in its earliest form – the author's raw and unedited content – so you can take advantage of this content long before the book's official release. You'll also receive updates when significant changes are made, as well as the final ebook version. The Early Release currently has draft versions of chapters 1, 3 - 5, 8, 9, and 17.There's a demand for more in-depth coverage that goes beyond the typical use cases for Grails. This will be a fairly advanced Grails book, focusing on the 2.0 feature set. Although it will cover some introductory material, it will presume that readers have read more introductory books, already have experience with Grails, or are coming to Grails from other web development frameworks.

By understanding the motivation and (without being overly detailed) the implementation of various core ideas in Grails, it's the author's hope that it will make development more intuitive and natural, with less memorization and copy & paste. This will also help with problem solving, since Grails adds a lot of invisible behavior by convention, and when that fails or doesn't work as expected it can be very frustrating determining what went wrong and how to move forward.
