  • how to setup scala
    I have a new windows 10 and downloaded the Coursier installer from scala-lang.org, the https://docs.scala-lang.org/getting-started/index.html says that you should have either java8 or java11 installed but most tutorials online and posts says to install latest version of java, which java jdk version should I install or does Coursier install it for me or do I choose the latest jdk (java-jdk-19)?

  • [NEWBIE] Problem with the very first project (Coursier installer, Win 10, Java 8)
    Try manually installing sbt without coursier. The instructions are on https://scala-lang.org. Source: over 1 year ago
  • The “Either” Issue
    I had met the core developers, we had discussing a lot about which technology would better address our demand and, after many considerations, we had chosen Scala. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago
  • Next programming language?
    I like scala. It combines object-oriented and functional programming into one high-level language, which makes it fun to learn. I don't know if it is popular in the robotics industry, but it runs on the jvm and can be combined with java, so there is that. I recommend the book "programming scala". Source: over 2 years ago
  • 25 years of OCaml
    Scala with the Typelevel ecosystem. Stay on the jVM, but have a much more pleasant and robust experience, including a great REPL. Source: almost 3 years ago
