Put simply the asset-pipeline plugin replaces the resources plugin and should be used to manage your assets (such as js and css).
The resources plugin existed prior to the asset-pipeline plugin. It was used to ease and standardize the use of assets within a Grails application. Later it was replaced by the asset-pipeline plugin.
The asset-pipeline plugin is a very capable, feature rich, and extensible plugin for management of your assets (mainly js, css). It also has several other complementary plugins which allow for pre-processing of assets (such as LESS).
While the use of the asset-pipeline plugin isn't required it is highly recommended and the default for later versions of Grails.
