For my book Hands on Scala, I did a totaly different approach: parsed markdown into HTML myself, used puppeteer to turn it into PDFs. I extended markdown with some macros to do the things I needed (e.g. named cross-references, two-column se

On the other hand, Scala's uPickle works almost identically as how Serde does, originally for performance, but the final visitor-based architecture ended up being almost identical. KotlinX serialization works basically the same way too

I maintain a medium scale/complexity service, backed by a postgres database, and this post resonates. While postgres has a great storage engine, the application interface going through the query planner is awful. We've had outages

We have this in Scala via the PPrint library, which provides 'pprint.log'. pprint.log also shows the filename/line number (so you can find your prints later) and has colored output and intelligent indent-formatting for things

As a point of contrast, I maintain a CI system at work, with a plain-old-HTML (almost javascript-free) log browser. Including ANSI syntax highlighting (server-rendered), timestamp tooltips, real-time updating, etc. Chrome has no problems lo

In Scala.js, you lean heavily on the Javascript runtime, and on the large ecosystem of Javascript libraries. That integration into the existing ecosystem is in fact one of the big selling points of Scala.js, just like how it is a big sellin

Yeah the extreme FP stuff works for some people, but not others, and that subcommunity has traditionally been very loud. I've been pushing hard on using Scala in a more hybrid way over the years, first with my open source libraries and

I think you have something here. Scala is complez, but it lets you "push down" a lot of application-level complexity into the language where it can be better managed snd understood by tooling. For example, - Scala singleton object

I'd argue that the real problem is finding people who think they're level 5 but aren't. Writing dense impenetrable code certainly doesn't sound like a high-level engineer to me! Scala certainly has no shortage of these

It's true that hardcore FP folks have been a problem in the past, and to some extent still are. However, things have definitely gotten a lot better now. There's a large contingent of "boring Scala" folks in the online co

Scala's Futures work unchanged, it just has a single-threaded threadpool instead of a multithreaded one. Anything built on Futures (e.g. my Castor actor library) is unchanged as well. Scala Futures are more or less a 1:1 mapping to Jav
