mod_groovy can run your Java/Groovy code under Apache. No messing around with Tomcat / JBoss / WebSphere or anything like that. Put your index.gr file onto your hard drive, hit the URL, and it's compiled and ran. Think of it as mod_php for groovy.

This project is for people who:

• want to try new languages
• like groovy, but don't want to be tied to JXEE and friends
• like PHP, but are afraid that php6 is going nowhere
• can't run a 600 Mb JVM on their server
• like Java but also like Virtual Hosts
• like Java but also like putting their applications onto the URL whichever whay they want w/o editing XML files and stopping/starting the server.
• don't like 3 min server start-up times :(

This project needs help from people who know Gnu make utilities, or who are willing to move the build system to ant/maven/et al.
