🚀 Excited to Announce My First Talk! 🚀 I’m thrilled to be presenting at the upcoming London Scala Talks! In this session, I’ll dive into Scaladex, an exciting open source project I began exploring last year. Scaladex marks my first step into open source contributions and has ignited my passion for Scala. I’ll explore the application’s intricacies, and share my experiences to help you consider it as a potential project for GSoC 2025. Additionally, I’ll discuss my role as a Google Summer of Code 2024 mentor with Scala Center. This talk will offer valuable insights into GSoC and inspire you to embark on your own open source journey with Scala Center.

Hey, after 5 years and a fantastic time working in the Scala 3 compiler team through the Scala Center - I am looking for a new role from August. Thank you in advance for any connections, advice, or opportunities you can offer. #OpenToWork

Hey, Scala Toolkit 0.3.0 & 0.4.0 are out! The 2 versions have been released in close succession to address Scala Native 0.5.x support. Sneak peek: Scala Toolkit 0.4.0 will become the default version starting with Scala CLI 1.4.0, which should be out very soon.  You can try it out today by pinning the version yourself, or by using the nightly version of Scala CLI. Scala Toolkit 0.3.0 is the last version supporting Scala Native 0.4.x. It also updates the dependency projects it bundles: • os-lib to 0.9.3 • upickle to 3.2.0 • sttp to 4.0.0-M12 • munit to 1.0.0-M11 Check the release notes at https://lnkd.in/dDVhP-Rj Scala Toolkit 0.4.0 adds support for Scala Native 0.5.x, but drops 0.4.x and earlier versions. It also updates the dependency projects it bundles: • os-lib to 0.10.0 • upickle to 3.3.0 • sttp to 4.0.0-M14 • munit to 1.0.0-RC1 Check the release notes at https://lnkd.in/dhpmqAgS

Did you know? 👀 Scala CLI not only allows to build pure Java projects, but also supports using directives inside of .java inputs. No need for a project.scala  or any cryptic build configuration file. Try declaring dependencies, JVM versions, Java properties, compiler options and more, directly in your sources. It's basically just a step away from being a Java CLI 🤔 Give it a try! 💪 #scalaspace #scalaCLI #scala #java #programming #code
