I've used groovy language and it is awesome. Java is getting really powerful nowadays and learning it is almost essential if anyone is targeting JVM based language. However, groovy can be easily learned if you already know Java. I picked it up quickly and it makes 99% sense to Java developer. BTW, l am really loving your content Dan Vega. Keep posting. 🙏 All the way from Nepal 🇳🇵
The Scala Spring project has unfortunately been cancelled. I also experimented a bit with Scala and Spring. Now , I using Kotlin. Just give it a try. It's a perfect match.
Good quick video. I however can't dissagree with you more on Java having caught up with Groovy. Every time I see a Groovy feature make it into java it is not the same, it usually lacks some of the features Groovy has and sometimes has worse syntax. In other words, lambdas are not closures, default methods are not traits, the GDK and I don't think Java will ever have AST Transforms native in the language. Every time I have to use Java I lament about what I lose and what I gain ; Personally I won't touch Kotlin, Scala or Go unless I have to because the backward syntax drives me crazy, and being dyslexic it's just something that slows me down. Although Kotlin has seemed to create a niche for themselves for Android development.
with Java, programmers have more control than with a 'way abstracted' language like Kotlin or Python for example. Good developers shouldn't complain about the amount of details in languages like Java and reach for "easier" options, that lead eventually to many problems..

Hello , is there any way to use SCALA with spring ? thank you .

Scala no, it doesn't support required conversion for spring.

40th...Thanks Dan. Some people say the codes are shorter in Kotlin.
Hey!! Can you cover virtual thread support in spring boot 3.2 and make fully Async Rest Service
There are Kotlin books, courses and videos. What resources would you recommend to learn Groovy?
Hi dan why dont you make a discord server so that student can put new video ideas and discuss new things with you and with others

Brrrrr I had to work on a Spring Boot Groovy project. I rather work with Java or Kotlin but I hate Groovy syntax :x
