Micronaut
Micronaut for Spring
Micronaut for Spring adds the ability to use the long-established Spring annotation-based programming model to build Micronaut applications and libraries that work with both Micronaut and Spring.
Micronaut for Spring in 1 Minute
I think this is a game changer. A clear migration path from Spring to Micronaut in the horizon.
Micronaut for Spring is huge for Grails
In Grails 4.0, Micronaut will take over as the parent context for Grails applications, and much of the internal wiring of Grails will be based on Micronaut instead of Spring, so that we can reduce memory consumption and improve startup time. This, combined with the improvements the Spring team has already made in Spring Boot 2.1, will result in significant improvements to Grails 4.x applications in terms of memory consumption and startup time.
Spring Boot vs Micronaut — The battle unleashed
Comparison articles are popping up which is great.
It is an interesting subject to know the detailed comparison between an old guard (Spring Boot) and new blood (Micronaut). As part of this article, I will be covering certain important attributes for Microservices and provide the comparative analysis between these two frameworks.

Graeme Rocher Groundbreaker award speech at Oracle Code
I have to emphasise that the amazing Groovy and Grails Community the privilege to work as a professional open source developer for the last ten years. It is a remarkable experience and I count myself lucky to be able to get up every morning and innovate on new technology, work on innovative solutions, give back to the community. It is really down to them that I am able to work on innovative products like Micronaut.... Thanks to all the Groovy and Grails Community to allow me to do what I do.
Gradle
A collection of opinionated Gradle plugins
This project provides a set of Gradle plugins that follow an opinionated way to build Java and Groovy projects. The conventions define by these plugins closely follow common practices observed in many Open Source projects.
If you want to contribute some open source code, this collection of Gradle plugins is a great starting point.

Lately, I have been working more in Open Source and I have been exposed more and more to code reviews. If you want to learn how to extract more value from Code reviews, watch @trisha_gee webinar.
