Scala 3 is a new language, built on a new compiler platform. We put special emphasis on making it easy to learn, easy to use, and easy to scale. /1

`fun returnTrueIfOdd (n : int) = true` is a stroke of genius

Recent optimizations to #akka boost it above Rust and C++ frameworks for gRPC performance.

I am extremely proud of my collaborator Nicolas Stucki (PhD student of Martin Odersky) for receiving the GPCE best paper award. Great job!

Great job, Nicolas! It's very rewarding to see this recognition for someone who worked so hard to make Scala 3 meta-programming safe and powerful.

I would be happy to mentor and supervise one or two doctoral students (PhDs) at @INSAIT who will work closely with me and my group at EPFL

Yesterday I passed my Ph.D. defense on Scalable Metaprogramming in Scala 3 😃

🎺 Blog post alert 🎺 10 years ago, we started Scala.js, the dialect of Scala that compiles to JavaScript. Today, it has become everyday reality. 🎂 As we celebrate its anniversary, come read and look back with us at what made it possible. scala-lang.org/blog-detail/20…

The inline/macro system in particular is just unbelievably elegant.

A Scala 3 library for `FromExpr` and `ToExpr` derivation is here. It could save you many lines of code. github.com/kitlangton/quo…

🗣️ Take a walk through the implementation of a macro and explore the metaprogramming API as well as how to use it with Nicolas Stucki at #ScalaDays Madrid Learn more: scaladays.org/madrid-2023/

Finally the long awaited 1.0.0 release is out! This will become the official runner for Scala once the package managers are updated. github.com/VirtusLab/scal…

💫Scala 3.3.0 LTS is out! It is the first release in the 3.3 Long-Term Support series. That means that it will be maintained for at least three years. During that time, there will be multiple 3.3.x patch releases containing forward and backward-compatible fixes and enhancements.
