Learn Scala Programming

Learn Scala Programming

Today's Scala is quite different from its earlier versions. The second version of the language is more than twelve years old and has undergone multiple changes related to supported features and library implementation. This book addresses both technical and architectural changes by providing a comprehensive guide to the redesigned standard library and collections as well as covering in-depth type system and first-level support for functions. Finally, you will build projects using the knowledge learned previously to build microservices and learn how to implement them with Scala and Lagom framework.
