Tooling question
Another thing to look into is sbt-revolver, this will shorten the turnaround time on whatever machine is running sbt. I remember it being pretty helpful when I was working with scala.js. Good luck!

Friction-less scala - Tell us what is causing friction in your day-to-day life with Scala
SBT. It's not because of the pseudo-scala config language, that looks especially alien next to braceless Scala 3 code. Or the weird symbolic operators. The big problem is correctness; in almost every project I've had to use spray-resolver because I've encountered weird bugs because SBT reuses the same dirty JVM. I really thing Drip would help here. I'll keep using SBT because it has the best Scala ecosystem support and great plugins like sbt-crossproject. It would also be great to be able to write build.sbt files in modern, regular Scala.

Java in the Small
https://get-coursier.io/
Its a cli based artifact fetching tool for the JVM ecosystem, and you can have it just make up classpath strings for you, i.e., to use some Apache dependencies with the single file simplified java running you could just:
java --enable-preview --class-path (cs fetch --classpath org.apache.commons:commons-collections4:4.4) program.java
Also, maybe do have a look at scala-cli:

A new, reworked ScalaDoc is here!
I feel like this is already is the case, one can use coursier https://get-coursier.io/ or scala-cli to get started with Scala extremely fast.

Scala is close to having an amazing Jupyter Notebook experience for data science workflows
I had a nice workflow installing different Java versions using SDKMAN but switched to Coursier because that't what's recommended in the Almond installation guide. In order to run `jupter lab` and start up the notebook environment, I need to separately install Jupyter Lab via conda (and activate that conda environment).

Splitting software into multiple applications and libraries. Most practical ways!
Could a Java project use a similar scheme? Probably, but the practicality of that is dependent on programatic resolution tools like coursier which don't exist in a convenient form for Java programmers quite yet.
