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.

Every season is great to take a walk in the woods. Many people use this opportunity to slow down, relax, and maybe spot some wildlife. But how many of them think about tree traversal strategies? Or if there's a functor for the tree? I bet you didn't! So let's take this opportunity to catch up! 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.
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, 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.
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, 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.
