Protobuf is commonly associated with code generation. However, in large projects with tens of thousands of message definitions, this approach can lead to an overwhelming amount of generated code. In this talk, I’ll share my journey in search of a different approach to this problem.

Protobuf is commonly associated with code generation. However, in large projects with tens of thousands of message definitions, this approach can lead to an overwhelming amount of generated code. Combined with additional boilerplate or macros for converting between generated classes and domain entities, it can significantly impact both compile times and developer productivity.
Is another path possible? In this talk, I’ll share my journey in search of a different approach to this problem—how it led me to an alternative path, the challenges I faced, and the key discoveries I made along the way.
In this talk, I will present insights from running the Open Community Build, where we continuously build and migrate nearly 2,000 open-source projects to the newest Scala Next versions, from scratch, every week.
This will be a live coding demonstration of Scala's newest feature set: capture checking.
I would like to present the use of NamedTuples to implement some cool things in SQL Libraries
Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with Scalar community and create lasting memories!
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.
