Developing Modern Applications with Scala

Delve into the world of Scala development with this compact guide that explains how to develop modern applications with the Scala programming language!

Scala is a general-purpose programming language. It has full support for functional programming and a very strong static type system. Designed to be concise, many of Scala's design decisions were inspired by criticism of Java's shortcomings. Scala source code is intended to be compiled to Java bytecode, so that the resulting executable code runs on a Java virtual machine. Java libraries may be used directly in Scala code and vice versa (language interoperability).

In this ebook, we provide a framework and toolset so that you can develop modern Scala applications. We cover a wide range of topics, from SBT build and reactive applications, to testing and database acceess. With our straightforward tutorials, you will be able to get your own projects up and running in minimum time.
