I just released the next 10 videos in the free “Introduction to Functional Programming” course. There are now 24 videos available, and the new ones start here:

Cut the first release of my new #Scala database library

github.com/com-lihaoyi/sc…

Take a look and try it out! It's a new library, so expect rough edges, but you should find it a competitive and easier alternative to the other database query libraries in the Scala ecosystem today

This next free video starts to get into some coding. It’s over 28 minutes long, and it’s titled, “Solving Problems With Pure Functions, Types, And EOP.”

Yes, a huge thank you to ziverge for making this happen! 🙏👏

1/2: I’ve started creating “100% FREE” Scala and functional programming video training courses. No ads, no paywalls — just free Scala/FP video courses. 🥳

The first 10 videos for the first course, “Introduction to Scala 3,” are now available here:
