In this talk, I'll walk you through coding and design practices I've developed over the years, whilst onboarding new graduates into world of Scala (be it typelevel based API, Spark based ETL, or ML pre and post-processings), and how I made the process easier for people who didn't have much Scala experience beforehand.
Onboarding new members into a mature codebase can be a non-trivial task. Especially that business documentation is usually a weakpoint, and requirements are ever changing. Furthermore whole functional stack can be a lot to digest for a person first interacting with Scala.

In this presentation you will learn the source of your issues, and a third way - sanely-automatic derivation which is fast to compile, fast to run, and easy to debug by its users.
In this talk, I'll introduce Bazel, exploring its core concepts and the unique aspects that set it apart from other build tools. I'll dive into some typical challenges Scala developers might face when working with Bazel.
In this talk, I'll go through a couple of these projects, and share some of what they've taught me, as well as how their legacy affected other projects in the ecosystem. And who knows, maybe you'll get inspired to try something crazy with Scala too?
Scala 3.6 stabilises the Named Tuples proposal in the main language. It gives us new syntax for structural types and values, and tools for programmatic manipulation of structural types without macros. Can we, and should we, push it to the limit? Of course! let's explore DSL's for config, data, and scripting, for a more dynamic feel.
In this talk, I'd like to share how the Iron library and features from Scala 3 helped us build a solution which is safer, more robust, and easier to maintain.
