This free online converter lets you convert code from Carbon to Groovy in a click of a button. To use this converter, take the following steps -
Characteristic | Carbon | Groovy |
---|---|---|
Syntax | C-like, modernized syntax designed to be familiar to C++ developers with improvements for readability and safety. | Concise, flexible, and optionally typed syntax; similar to Java but with many simplifications and dynamic features. |
Paradigm | Primarily object-oriented and procedural, with support for generic programming. | Multi-paradigm: supports object-oriented, functional, and scripting paradigms. |
Typing | Statically typed with type inference and strong type safety. | Dynamically typed by default, but supports optional static typing. |
Performance | Aims for high performance, close to or better than C++, suitable for systems programming. | Runs on the JVM; generally slower than Java due to dynamic features, but can be optimized with static compilation. |
Libraries and frameworks | Limited ecosystem as it is still experimental; intended to interoperate with C++ libraries. | Rich ecosystem; can use all Java libraries and has its own frameworks like Grails and Spock. |
Community and support | Very new, small community, limited resources and support. | Established community, good documentation, and active support, especially in the Java ecosystem. |
Learning curve | Steep for beginners, easier for C++ developers due to similar syntax and concepts. | Gentle learning curve, especially for those familiar with Java; more approachable for scripting and rapid development. |
