This talk will introduce Mill: a newer build tool that does everything SBT does, but better. Faster, simpler, easier, Mill democratizes the build so you don't need to be a build tool expert to work on it.
SBT is one of the oldest parts of the Scala ecosystem. Very powerful, but also very complicated and difficult to understand and maintain. This talk will introduce Mill: a newer build tool that does everything SBT does, but better. Faster, simpler, easier, Mill democratizes the build so you don't need to be a build tool expert to work on it. From "hello world" build pipelines to massive real-world projects, this talk will explore the ways in which Mill makes build tooling *easy*, solving one of the longest standing pain points in the Scala community.
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.
I will demonstrate how Pillars can take you from zero to production in record time. By leveraging Pillars’ integration of well-known libraries, you can bypass the usual complexities of setting up observability (traces, metrics, and logs), database access, API calls, and feature flag management.
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.
In this talk, we'll cover the essentials of macros, why they are useful, why you should care about them, and how to become as good as you need with them for practical purposes.
