Writing client-facing APIs involves mundane tasks, whether it be REST, GraphQL, or gRPC. In this talk, I will pick two repetitive tasks during API development and demonstrate how we can utilize Scala to automate the most boring parts.

Writing client-facing APIs involves mundane tasks, whether it be REST, GraphQL, or gRPC. In this talk, I will pick two repetitive tasks during API development and demonstrate how we can utilize Scala to automate the most boring parts:
* maintaining the list of possible errors up to date (uses Scala 3)
* endpoint explosion with different return data requirements, having to write custom optimized DB queries for each of them
The demonstration will use GraphQL and Caliban, but the principles apply to other endpoint types as well.
In my talk I will argue that we can do much better by relying in a systematic way on types and capabilities.
Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with Scalar community and create lasting memories!
Drawing from multiple Scala LLM workshops we conducted this past year, I will share insights to significantly enhance your AI experience.
I would like to present the use of NamedTuples to implement some cool things in SQL Libraries
In this talk, we will walk through a concrete example of a boilerplate-heavy domain. By replacing common Scala 2 workarounds with Opaque Types, Extension Methods, Enums, and Union Types, we will demonstrate how to achieve a strictly typed, decoupled architecture without the noise.
