Hello Grails Developers!
During SpringOne 2011, Peter Ledbrook gave a excellent talk on Grails plugin development best practices. I thought the talk had a lot of great advice for plugin developers, and thought it would be a good idea to publish the tips online. I recently started working to transform the presentation slides into a Grails Howto.
I have finally reached a point where it's time to pass the guide off to the community. The plugin development guide needs a lot of work, but I think we have a starting point. I think a comprehensive guide to plugin development will help improve the quality of Grails plugins, and promote additional plugin development.
You can fork a copy of the guide and start contributing, by visiting the grails-howtos project on github:
There are many smart and talented plugin developers on this mailing list, I look forward to seeing how the community shapes this guide. Sorry I can't take the guide further, but I'm not a plugin expert. :-)
Thanks for all the hard work, I can't wait to see whats next for the Grails community!
