Grails was previously known as 'Groovy on Rails'; in March 2006 that name was dropped in response to a request by David Heinemeier Hansson, founder of the Ruby on Rails framework. Work began in July 2005, with the 0.1 release on March 29, 2006 and the 1.0 release announced on February 18, 2008. G2One - The Groovy Grails Company - was acquired by SpringSource in November, 2008, and it was later acquired by VMware. |
