In this presentation, I will demonstrate how we leveraged the strengths of Scala and TypeScript to develop a collaborative text editor that meets the strictest standards for security, performance, and real-time collaboration.

Have you ever wondered what it takes to combine the power of Scala with the flexibility of TypeScript to create a secure, real-time collaborative text editor—similar to Google Docs, but built for high-security environments? Imagine a scenario where military teams need to simultaneously update critical text documents during a mission, while ensuring airtight security in air-gapped deployments.
In this presentation, I will demonstrate how we leveraged the strengths of Scala and TypeScript to develop a collaborative text editor that meets the strictest standards for security, performance, and real-time collaboration. I will dive deep into the technical architecture, powered by advanced operational transformation algorithms, which enables multi-user editing without conflicts. Additionally, I'll share how we layered robust security measures on top of the solution to ensure it meets military-grade standards, while maintaining seamless performance in isolated networks.
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.
This talk presents McCCT, a new concurrency testing tool developed at KTH by the speakers in the context of an ongoing research project.
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.
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.
