Rapid Development
Grails promotes rapid development through its convention-over-configuration approach and powerful features, like scaffolding and GORM (Grails Object Relational Mapping), which speed up the coding process significantly.
Groovy Language Integration
Being built on Groovy, a dynamic language for the Java platform, Grails provides the flexibility and expressiveness of Groovy while maintaining compatibility with Java libraries and tools.
Spring Boot Foundation
Grails is built on top of Spring Boot, leveraging its robust dependency injection, security, and configuration management capabilities, which ensures the stability and scalability of applications.
Plugin Ecosystem
Grails offers a rich ecosystem of plugins for extending the framework. This allows developers to easily integrate various functionalities without reinventing the wheel.
Convention-over-Configuration
The framework emphasizes conventions for many aspects of the development process, reducing the need for extensive configuration and allowing developers to focus more on business logic.
Strong Community and Documentation
Grails has a strong community and extensive documentation, which make it easier for developers to find solutions to problems, share knowledge, and get support.
Trails is a modern web application framework. It builds on the pedigree of Rails and Grails to accelerate development by adhering to a straightforward, convention-based, API-driven design philosophy.

And frameworks like Grails build conventions and helpers on top of Spring.

I don’t have any direct experience and am only suggesting it because you mentioned RoR…But Grails (https://grails.org/) is basically the JVM version of RoR (Groovy on Rails -> Grails).

Grails – Spring under the hood. Much less boilerplate. Opinionated, which helps keep things consistent. Uses Spring-Security plugin for authentication.

Also, Grails, which a Rails like framework build on Groovy, a JVM scripting language.

Any JVM language to the rescue here? There’s one, but it’s not the one you’re thinking about. In a sign that this index may not accurately reflect our project reality, Groovy saw a meteoric rise of 0.86% to 1.04% last year! That was good for place 17. Yep, Groovy! Are people writing Gradle plugins in Groovy? Or is Grails having a resurgence? I’m as baffled as you are.
