Slightly tangential but one thing I absolutely love about sbt/play framework is the frigging development loop. You start play using `play ~run`, save changes and by the time you've switched to your browser, the source has been compiled to `.class` and you are ready to hit f5.
It's almost magical, DESPITE scala being slow as snail at compilation.
The scala metals LSP server also has better than enterprise grade documentation. https://scalameta.org/metals/docs/editors/vim.html https://scalameta.org/metals/docs/editors/vim.html
