Let's write a game in Scala Native, for Playdate!
Let's write a game in Scala Native, for Playdate!
It's a tiny console with very limited hardware and a 1-bit black&white screen. Having a well-documented C API, it's a perfect candidate for playing with using Scala Native! What could go wrong...Turns out, it's quite challenging, especially for someone mostly working in the safe haven of the JVM.
In this talk, I'll share with you:
- What I've learned about Scala Native as part of this journey
- Problems I've stumbled upon on my way to run SN on an unsupported platform
- Hopefully, a demo on the actual device. If I don't figure it out by the time of the conference, at least we'll have a game in the official Playdate simulator :)
In this beginner-friendly talk we'll try to find out using the power of Scala and functional programming techniques.
In this talk, we will demonstrate some elegant applications of functional programming in Scala, with even more elegant visual results - all with live code and real-time output.
Join me in a talk empowering you to build Scala applications that not only excel internally but also deliver optimal experiences from an external perspective.
I would like to go over the most relevant tools and changes that can improve your developer experience.
