Kyo strikes back! 🚀 This is probably the longest changelog I've seen in a very long time! Could Kyo be the missing uber-framework for #Scala after this release? Let's look at the massive list of new modules 🧵

It's JetBrains developer survey time again! With everything going on, I have a feeling that this could be the last one 🤷

Developer Ecosystem Survey 2026

Calling all developers, coders, and AI enthusiasts!

💡 Did you know that every build of the Scala language goes through a Community Build? It's a massive automated pipeline that tests 2327 real-world projects to guarantee ecosystem compatibility 🤯 #scala What happens when a project fails? To quote Tomasz Godzik, it usually happens when the project: 💨 no longer exists ➕ starts using a newer version (like 3.4+) 🛠️ cannot be tested automatically due to complexity of the build In such cases, the team checks those failures manually to be sure it's not because of the compiler 👏

It doesn't matter what we think about Spring, the truth is that it's one of the most successful frameworks and it's currently a synonym for Java development. This documentary gives an insight into its origins and evolution. #java

The aftermovie for Scalar 2026 is online! I hope the talks will be available soon too 🤞 #scala

Workflow4s v0.6.0 is out 🎉 The biggest change is that the library is now effect-agnostic. If you want to learn more about the whole process of getting rid of the baked effect, here is the article 👇 #scala https://medium.com/business4s-blog/workflows4s-goes-effect-polymorphic-cc68a2b73b98

I've played a bit with Wick, the new type-safe Spark API from Netflix. I've only tried the basics, but if you're a beginner interested in how it works, check out my latest article 👇 #scala #spark

I have a new favourite terminal app that I didn't know I needed 😀 It gives you a fully Vim-motion-driven interface to manage GitHub pull requests. You can inspect diffs, leave comments, manage labels, review, switch from draft to ready-for-review... All the usual stuff, but with an instantly familiar interface! 👉

It's fascinating how long GitHub has managed to run on Ruby and MySQL... But I would rather see Rust for performance-critical code than Go 🤷 Anyway, the growth is unbelievable!

An update on GitHub availability

Here’s what we’ve done—and what we’re still doing—to improve our availability and reliability.

I genuinely disagree with most of the article. Yes, in the default setup, LLMs write poor Scala. But it takes less than an hour to configure them properly - installing Metals MCP, Cellar and a few skills. After that, the generated code is actually really good! #scala

Scalac - Software Development Company - Akka, Kafka, Spark, ZIO

LLMs are mediocre at Scala. If you don't push back, your codebase will be too.

LLMs default to Java idioms in a Scala codebase. The code compiles, passes tests, and quietly degrades your type system. Here's what the data ...

A go-to article if you want to start with Scala macros. It covers everything from top learning resources and compiler profiling to building better print utilities and shows exactly how to attach a JVM debugger to the compiler's process. Bookmark it 👇 #scala

You can't go wrong learning Haskell. Think of it like weightlifting for your brain - tough at first, but it teaches you the core mechanics. If that sounds too heavy, Elm is a fantastic, easier starting point. Unison is a great pick, too! #haskell

Slick, the Future-based database library, will soon get a massive update with version 4! 🚀 It's ditching the Future-only constraint for a new Cats Effect 3 engine, bringing dedicated facades for Future, IO/fs2 and ZIO. All with the same query DSL. #scala
