The article author is the creator of the "lihaoyi ecosystem" of Scala libraries: https://github.com/com-lihaoyi https://github.com/com-lihaoyi The libs are implemented with advance Scala programming and expose elegant, Python-like interfaces. Li's ability to make beautiful abstractions is incredible. His book Hands on Scala Programming shows you how to create different applications using his library ecosystem. It's a magnum opus that's worth reading, even if you're not interested in Scala. Li's Principle of Least Power blog post is another great read. Scala would be a much more popular language if the community just used his libraries and followed his design patterns.
