kotlin VS scala

A basic understanding of Kotlin and programming in general (OOP).

Being somewhat allergic to coding in Java (this is a personal thing, if you like Java then good for you) I decided to try out writing the code using Kotlin from JetBrains instead. I'm already using IntelliJ as I work with Apache Spark using Scala, so the tooling was already there and ready to go for this.

Another option could be to check out Kotlin. It's a JVM language that while still object-oriented has may functional syntax features.

Kotlin is not a Google project. It is made by JetBrains. It says so right up front on their web page: https://kotlinlang.org/

Kotlin

github-workflows-kt is a tool for creating GitHub Actions workflows in a type-safe script, helping you to build robust workflows for your GitHub projects without mistakes, with pleasure, in Kotlin.

The default programming language is Kotlin instead of Java. Also, Build configuration language is nowadays Kotlin DSL (build.gradle.kts) instead of Groovy DSL (build.gradle), the past default.

Recently I had to revisit the "JVM languages universe" again. Yes, language(s), plural! Java isn't the only language that uses the JVM. I previously used Scala, which is a JVM language, to use Apache Spark for Data Engineering workloads, but this is for another post 😉.

Big Scala vibes here, see also [1].

Compiling Scala without a SAT solver is probably too difficult.

The CNF Converter is a gem.

In addition to Structured Query Language(SQL), we can also use a variety of different programming languages, such as Python, Java, JavaScript, R, Julia, Scala, or any other programming language as long as it supports a basic database connection and functions to perform all of those operations, to connect to databases and perform more advanced query operations on the data. This gives us greater flexibility and allows us to apply custom-created logic to the data.

Based on Lambda Calculus, developed by Alonzo Church in the 1930s, functional programming has been implemented in mainstream programming languages like JavaScript, Python and Java. Programming languages like Erlang, Haskell or Scala are better suited for functional programming as they are designed to be functional first.

Tapir is a Scala framework. (which runs on the JDK) Since the recent release of version 1.0, it's become my go to for many projects. It doens't provide much in the way of integrations with 3rd party frameworks, but I actually prefer that. It does autogenerate great swagger docs though.

It already 99% worked. We just needed to upgrade ASM to a version that recognizes JDK 19 bytecode, so the optimizer (which most people don't even use) can function on JDK 19. The PR was https://github.com/scala/scala/pull/10001 — eazy peazy.
