I would like to go over the most relevant tools and changes that can improve your developer experience.

Tooling is one of the topics most discussed in the Scala community. We often complain about its issues or have to deal with its’ imperfect solutions. However, I believe we have gone a really long way during the last few years and we are consistently improving with most Scala core teams being highly conscious of the current imperfections. I would like to go over the most relevant tools and changes that can improve your developer experience.
I propose that we can extend Mirrors to operations, and use the most natural DSL of all - plain trait definitions.
This talk aims to equip the audience with the minimum required bagage to get comfortable working with contravariance.
In this talk, we’ll show first the different techniques we can use to apply constraints is our domains. Then, we’ll present Iron, its features, extensions, and integrations. We’ll finish by showcasing a fully integrated constraint-enforcing app.
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.
In this talk, we will take a tour around the `error` function. Starting from the simple use-cases and ending up with sophisticated yet developer-friendly error messages.
In this beginner-friendly talk we'll try to find out using the power of Scala and functional programming techniques.
