The "uncertainty phase" for Grails is officially over. 🚀
With the move to the Apache Software Foundation (@TheASF) and the release of Grails 7, the framework has found its footing as a high-productivity layer on top of Spring Boot.
Grails isn’t an "exotic" outlier anymore—it’s a stable, community-driven powerhouse for 2026. 🛠️

Next week at #DrupalDevDays Athens 2026, I walk through the 12 turning points that shaped where it is now - and what they taught me about building open source and working with the community.

An open source game about learning Git!
Oh My Git! visualizes the internal structures of Git repositories in realtime. The player can immediately see the results of their actions.
To accommodate people who are new to Git, the game features a custom-designed playing card interface! The cards help remember newly introduced Git commands, but also contain a short description and an icon. Therefore, they combine both action as well as documentation.
For more advanced or curious players, the game offers a integrated terminal, where they can execute arbitrary Git commands. There's a "real" Git integrated into the game, which allows players to try and learn all of Git's features.
To teach players how to use Git for collaboration in teams, Oh My Git! puts a focus on how to interact with remotes, and which workflows exist when dealing with multiple repositories.
It support Windows, macOSX, Linux

Fiverr was discovered using unsigned, public URLs for client files, making sensitive work products searchable by anyone. This is a textbook example of why relying on proprietary third-party platforms for confidential data is risky.
Open-source alternatives like Nextcloud or FileBrowser offer robust permission sets that you control, not a third-party dev team.
