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.

Are you using one of many type-class based libraries in Scala? Have you ever been forced to understand this “automatic vs semiautomatic” distinction? Did your builds slowed down when you started using the “derivation” thing? Did you ever hate your life when looking for a missing implicit? 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, I'll introduce Bazel, exploring its core concepts and the unique aspects that set it apart from other build tools. I'll dive into some typical challenges Scala developers might face when working with Bazel.
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.
In this lightning talk, we will discuss 2 interesting IntelliJ IDEA 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.
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?
