> Under the hood, it's implemented by taking a script written in a "DSL" (it's actually Groovy code)

It's Groovy code? The announcement page doesn't mention "Groovy" anywhere, let alone "Apache Groovy" which is what the backers of Groovy are meant to refer to it as since last November (2015) when it was promoted from the Apache incubator by the ASF.



Yep. You'd think this kind of thing would be considered significant enough to mention, but apparently not. They do mention it in the "tutorial", which AFAICT constitutes the entirety of the official documentation: https://github.com/jenkinsci/workflow-plugin/blob/master/TUT...

> A pipeline is a Groovy script that tells Jenkins what to do when your Pipeline is run.
