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.
Case study. Summary of over a year of experience building AWS lambdas using Scala 3, scala-cli, and GraalVM. Presentation of the open-sourced library providing custom lambda runtime developed for that purpose.
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?
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 will show you how to create a programming language from scratch.
In this talk, I'll walk you through how workflows4s works, how it stands apart from tools like Temporal or Camunda, and why it just might be the better approach for modern, event-driven applications.
