[sorry for the echo-y audio quality on this one, folks. Had to use a back-up channel as the primary accidentally got mixed together during recording]
Alex Payne spent over a year researching the best language with which to approach the architectural challenges at Twitter, the popular social messaging platform on which he works. In this talk, he’ll share for the first time in public why he settled on Scala. Learn about Scala’s winning combination of object-oriented and functional programming, its robust concurrency model, and other sexy features. Get a quick tour of the Scala community, including standout apps and emerging best practices. Find out why Scala sets the standard for next generation languages. Even if you’re happy with your language toolbox, you’ll learn something from Scala you want to take back to your daily coding.
