As Grails is based on [Groovy](http://www.groovy-lang.org/) is is maybe a good idea to have a closer look into Groovy as well. :wink:

1. [Install](http://www.groovy-lang.org/install.html) is always a good idea.
1. Work through [The Groovy 2 Tutorial](https://leanpub.com/groovytutorial/read).
* _Plese consider buying the book!_
