A redesigned Groovy web console v2 runs on Google Cloud with static front end on App Engine and a pool of Cloud Functions per Groovy version (Java 11), deployable via GitHub Actions. It supports @Grab dependency resolution, runs Spock test execution and Groovy 2.5.15, 3.0.9 and Groovy 4 beta, shares code via compressed base64 URLs or GitHub gists, and isolates each execution to avoid metaClass bleed; streaming output, stdin and persistent per-user saving remain unimplemented.
