Tired of relying on bulky 3rd-party servers for managing workflows or building lightweight but ad-hoc solutions yourself? Imagine a library that offers a declarative, composable API and that requires only a database to run. Let me introduce you to workflows4s, a proof-of-concept state-of-the-art library solves the problem of long running stateful processes and builds on top of Scala 3 and principles of functional programming.
In this talk, I'll walk you through how workflows4s works, how it stands apart from tools like Temporal or Camunda, and why it just might be the better approach for modern, event-driven applications.
