Scala Fibers, Java Virtual Threads, and Kotlin Coroutines - this talk shows how this elegant solution manifests at three different abstraction levels.
For nearly a decade, Scala's concurrency has been driven by Akka, Cats Effect and ZIO, each with its own vision for purity, safety, and pragmatism. Kyo enters this incredible ecosystem with a fresh perspective.This talk provides a critical, technical comparison of these systems through a unified framework.

This talk will explore the use of Scala as a scripting language, replacing the Bash and Python scripts common throughout the industry.
