The Grails framework allows instance development without requiring any configuration. Just download Grails and you are ready to start. Grails accomplish this by automatically providing the Tomcat web container and the HSQLDB database during development.

After a little while the command line tells you that the application was generated. This command creates the directory structure and the base configuration of your new web application.
