About This Talk

This will be a live coding demonstration of Scala's newest feature set: capture checking.

We will see what capture checking is, how it works, all with realistic demonstrations of how we would use it in practice, with resources that would have significant consequences if mismanaged; we will see how (and where) capture checking significantly simplifies the code and frees our mental space to focus on the critical parts of our applications.

By the end of this talk, you will get a practical understanding of capture checking, with insights of where you should use it and how you can leverage Scala's strengths where it matters.

Effects as Capabilities

When writing software, we currently seem to have to choose between an imperative style - easy to read and write, hard to reason about - and a monadic style - hard to read and write, easy to reason about.This talk is about being greedy and getting the best of both worlds, because we deserve it.
