In this lightning talk, we will discuss 2 interesting IntelliJ IDEA features.

IntelliJ IDEA allows for displaying useful information directly in the editor, next to the code, in the form of inlay hints, that is, text that is slightly different from the actual code, but similar enough to be effortlessly read together with it. But such functionality comes at a price – you may feel that the editor is now too crowded and cluttered with unnecessary text. The X-Ray mode is a way to solve it. With X-Ray, you can keep inlay hints and all the other additional information disabled or only partially enabled to the point where you feel comfortable. In this lightning talk, we will discuss both these features.
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.
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 will discuss why it's hard to use the power of RT to test side-effect-heavy apps.
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.
