Scala has many libraries for new and refined types, but do you know the difference? 🤔 New types create distinct types (think new boxes for your data). Refined types add constraints to existing types (think labels & rules for what goes in the box). Artūras Šlajus just released a newtype library exclusively for Scala 3! #scala #typesafe

Yet Another Newtype Library - yantl

Hey Jakub, do you know about the Stream Deck, right? 😀 Anyway, that was a great real-world demonstration of building a Scala Native program with generated C bindings, but more importantly how Nix fits into all this ♻️ #scala #nix

Another cool Scala 3-only library, this time a zero-dependency database client. I'm not a fan of annotations, but I'm happy to see another library going with a plain SQL approach instead of ORM. #scala #database #postgres

In my opinion, Scala should be moving towards a clearer, more unified syntax, as demonstrated by improvements to implicits and underscore usage. Introducing [] for collection literals, when those symbols are already fundamental to the type system, seems to me a violation of this principle. I believe it's a step backward, it adds unnecessary ambiguity to the syntax. #scala

How is it possible that Scala 3 can depend on Scala 2.13 artifacts and vice versa? It's a pretty cool solution to be honest. 👏 (The video is a bit old, but still relevant!) #scala
