About Scala

Scala is a language that enjoys pushing boundaries. It runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) but lets you write code that often feels more like Haskell than Java. Scala features a powerful type system, support for both functional and object-oriented programming, and the ability to create domain-specific languages (DSLs).

The language has been used by major players like Twitter and LinkedIn, and is particularly popular in areas such as data analytics and distributed systems - not least thanks to frameworks like Apache Spark and Akka. With Scala 3, the language has taken steps toward clearer syntax and improved type inference, making it more accessible to new users.

So if you’re looking for a language that lets you write powerful, concise, and expressive code while taking advantage of the JVM ecosystem, Scala may be exactly what you’re after.
