GrailsUI Primer
This presentation will introduce AJAX in Grails through the GrailsUI plugin. We'll start with the core concepts behind the plugin and give examples of the most widely used and interesting widgets GrailsUI provides.
Some examples will include methods of interacting with the widgets and handling events. We will also talk about how to provide proper JSON data to the widgets from the server.
