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.

A clean Domain Model is hard to maintain. Over time, our core entities often become overloaded, accumulating database logic, infrastructure constraints, and JVM-specific boilerplate. We want a pure, rich domain, but we often settle for leaky abstractions or an explosion of wrappers just to keep the compiler happy.
Scala 3 offers a powerful, pragmatic alternative: you no longer need complex concepts to solve easy problems. By leveraging its modern toolset, we can define behaviors, data shapes, and relationships exactly where they are needed—without polluting the core entities.

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.
Scala Native can interact with C code and libraries, greatly expanding the library ecosystem beyond pure Scala offerings. Let's see the low level and high level tools that make it possible, talk through challenges of encoding various C concepts in Scala, and demonstrate what popular C libraries look like when used alongside idiomatic Scala code.
Scala Fibers, Java Virtual Threads, and Kotlin Coroutines - this talk shows how this elegant solution manifests at three different abstraction levels.
In this talk, I will introduce the highlights of what to look forward to in Scala 3.9 LTS, as well as how to think about the upcoming new release.
I would like to present the use of NamedTuples to implement some cool things in SQL Libraries
This will be a live coding demonstration of Scala's newest feature set: capture checking.
