Hi!, I'm searching for a new framework to develop web applications, can you tell me what is your expirience with Grails developing the sky.com portal, and if there are some advantages over ROR or DJango? Thanks for your help!
Hi Fernando,
We chose Grails as the basis for the web application development after evaluating a number of different Java-based frameworks (stripes, tapestry etc.). We had previous experience writing some large internationalized portals using SpringMVC and the approach that Grails took was similar and would enable us to get up-and-running quicker (built-in build system, plugin architecture w/ lots of available plugins). Our team had solid Java skills so the jump to Groovy was not too great. We don't use PHP so DJango wasn't really considered, and as for Ruby on Rails while it offered alot of similar benefits it did not have the depth of libraries and industry acceptance to be a supportable technology for the client.
If you'd like to discuss in more detail / in person please let me know.
Gus.
