Grails Exchange Demo App coming together…

I thought I would put together a quick demo app that demonstrated all of the things I’m going to be talking about at Grails Exchange so people have a nice “take-away” to play with at home.

Well… it’s a week to go and I’m half done… but a lot can happen on a long flight! For a teaser… here’s the home page… based on a little DZone inspiration..

And it wouldn’t be Web2.0 without CSS rollovers on those images… (technique from here).

Hopefully it will be a nice *small* sample app that can help get people started with some interesting grails features (browser thumbnails, pdf generation, rss feeds, and charting) . Will sort out a download link after the conference (hopefully the thing will actually get finished before then :-)
