This talk will be a quick introduction to the Unison "paradigm" and language, from the perspective of a long-standing Scala programmer.
Unison is a young programming language for the cloud, built in particular by the authors of the Scala Red Book and other people who are (or were) active in the Scala community. Unison distinguishes itself from traditional programming languages by re-inventing the foundations of code storage and deployment. By doing so, it unlocks a number of very interesting properties that are rather unique in the programming landscape.
This talk will be a quick introduction to the Unison "paradigm" and language, from the perspective of a long-standing Scala programmer. It'll highlight the benefit of this approach, as well as some of the caveats.
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 we'll see how to model a tree structure in Scala, take both imperative and functional approaches to tree traversal algorithms, and do some ASCII art at the same time.
During the talk, we’ll build a small effect system using solely Scala 3 context functions step-by-step.
Discover how functional programming can inspire creativity with the Scala Sampler, a digital music instrument developed for the Sounds of Scala web audio library.
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?
In this talk I will explain the inner workings of an organisation that goes into releasing, maintaining and developing Scala and core parts of its ecosystem.
