It'd be the first build system for any JVM language that would be nice. I don't know what it is, but they all seem to come with various amounts of suckage (started with Java when GNU Make was the most advanced option, via ant, maven, gradle, buildr, sbt, ...). It must be the JVM. I worked with Scala for close to a decade now, and my conclusion is that its advantages (type stuff) are mostly theoretical, and its drawbacks (sbt, type stuff, the JVM, slow compiler, the mess of features) are mostly practical. I'm happy to have mostly moved on.
- killin_dan 9y agoWhat do you use now? Have you tried F#?
- pimeys 9y agoWhile not on the same level as Cargo, I'd say l Leiningen is a very robust and nice build system for the JVM. Miles ahead of SBT.
- killin_dan 9y agoYeah but who would want to use clojure of they had a choice to use scala? Lein is what I always wished sbcl had.
