Description

1. the current Grails UI Plugin wiki page is good as a tutorial or homepage, but it doesn't seem to be the best format as documentation. It would be good to have a documentation that we could lookup the possible tag and every attribute. (hopefully, with description for each).

It would be good if it is possible to display the tag source code in the document like the current Grails tag document. (and it's better if there is a way to allow easy community editing to the doc)

2. it's good to have a live demo, that doesn't require downloading and starting up a Grails app. I suppose Spring with 25M VC fund should have sufficient resource to open an Amazon EC2 account for a virtual machine to host the stuff!

if it's not an option, it's better to provide an easy option to start and run the demo app. e.g. with a fully packaged binary distribution that contains all required plugins. And user could download a specific version of Grails, extract the binary distribution, and call run-app (or run a specific batch file).

Graeme and I have talked about providing docs for GrailsUI in the same format as the Grails docs.
