Tmux, NeoVim, etc. to write pure Kotlin code?
You might want to look at Scala, they have proper LSP support with metals which means you can write your code in vscode, neovim, emacs, or even fleet (the new jetbrains text editor).
-
New plugin to support LSP file operations
Please write in the comments if you know of any language servers I should test it with. Currently I tested only metals and rust-analyzer.
-
Why are all the guides on using LSP functionality full of bloat?
If you are using nvim-lspconfig you can pass the settings as a Lua table to the setup function. For example, here are may metals settings:
- Type-Signature.com
-
What is the one thing you need everyday to make your job easier?
Bazel support in Metals. I didn't spend all that time figuring out and adjusting Emacs/Spacemacs and making my workflow (almost) mouse-free just to scrap my config and switch to IDEA's rodent infested ways.

Scala 2.13.9 is here
There is one small issue involving code completion returning inappropriate completions in some cases; https://github.com/scalameta/metals/pull/4414 will fix it, once it's included in a release. Perhaps that's the PR you saw?

Scala Isn't Fun Anymore
It is, by quite a bit.
While the "Scala IDE" project is dead for all practical purposes, IntelliJ IDEA's Scala plugin is actually pretty amazing. There's also a VisualStudio plugin that does pretty much the same and is advancing by leaps and bounds. There are also interconnecting projects that provide i.e. language server or build server that are reused by other projects. It's pretty modular. Metals (https://scalameta.org/metals/) is amazing.
In general the language has become a wee bit faster to build, there was good progress with build times during the 2.12/2.13 cycles.
With Scala3 the language got a bit simpler; concepts that were implemented explicitly using (hehe) implicits got their own keywords and a lot of the opinionated boilercode that cause a lot of debates is now generated during complication and hidden. A lot of "standardization" has occurred.

Starting with Scala: editor and version choice?
IntelliJ has its own BSP. The other one is Metals. You can use it with many IDEs (vim, emacs, vscode, atom,...). Use it with emacs if you're comfortable with it.

Does the fthomas/refined library work differently in Scala 3?
I think this might be related to this issue.

`boundary/break`: do you use it ? what do you do with it ?
You can look (and EPFL collect feedback) about EPFL implementation of async/await: https://github.com/lampepfl/async. Also you can look at dotty ticket about this: https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/pull/16739

Iron updates: turning opaque types into value objects
The reason Iām not currently an opaque type user as they do not play well with the tagless final style we use, though I am patiently awaiting some attention on my bug report: https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/issues/17281

About Scala-Native
Scala Native has much more control on how the Scala AST is compiled, and can easier workaround platform limitations, eg. lazy vals in Scala 3 required reflection config for Native Image (see this and that), while in Scala Native we could mitigate problems with unsupported usage inside in other ways within the compiler plugin.

I've started writing a book on Scala 3 Macros
By the way, you might be interested in this recent PR which overhauls the scala 3 macro docs: https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/pull/17060.

What is scala's modern Web API framework?
For example, this issue (https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/issues/12840) was blocking the migration, it was reported more than a year ago and the fix was finally released a month ago (https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/releases/tag/3.3.0-RC2).

scala 3 does not have :javap. Does anyone have any tips how to get around this.
For the record, there is an implementation of :javap which is close to being done but might need a volunteer to get it over the finish line: https://github.com/lampepfl/dotty/pull/12210
