I have worked on both Groovy on Grails and Ruby on Rails.

  1. Both are agile platforms and follow the DRY or 'don't repeat yourself' principle and conventions over configuration.
  2. Both Grails is a framework of frameworks. You can write Java or Ruby syntax code in place of Groovy syntax code it will work perfectly.
  3. In Groovy we can use Java Spring and Hibernate frameworks too.
  4. Both support scaffolding.
  5. Rails has gems and plugins but in Grails, till now, I have used only plugins.
  6. Rails framework is built in Ruby language and Grails framework is built in Groovy language.

Both are wonderful frameworks.
