Security static analysis tooling for Scala?
I also recommend using Scalafix. It's a tool which can lint your codebase, checking for potentially problematic things, like

Scala noob question. Parameter of type Option. Why does scala compiler allows passing null as an argument?
I actually still recommend using WartRemover, at least until there's an equivalent ScalaFix ruleset that's as effective.

Teaching exercises with custom error messages
Probably linting rules defined in Scalafix. See https://github.com/scalacenter/scalafix/blob/master/scalafix-rules/src/main/scala/scalafix/internal/rule/DisableSyntax.scala#L11 for an example.

Is Scala to Java the same relationship as TypeScript has with ECMAScript?
By contrast, Java and ECMAScript are essentially what we might call "classical" imperative OOP languages, although ECMAScript reveals much more of its Lisp-inspired "map/filter/reduce" FP roots. IMO ESLint is essentially table stakes for working with ECMAScript, but honestly, I wouldn't stop there and would insist on working in TypeScript, including some of the tooling for ESLint specifically for TypeScript, dialing type-safety up to 11, effectively like using Wart Remover with Scala.

Scala Resurrection
I'm awed by the maturity of the Scala 2 compiler. Every minor version in the 2.13 series adds a new linting improvement. You can see that if you have sbt-tpolecat in your project. I'm always happy to see that some option from Wartremover is no longer used.

New to Scala;
I was recently trying to move away from Scapegoat to Wartremover and I got bitten by this bug which is particularly prevalent in codebases using Typelevel libraries.

Which static analysis tool do you use for Scala?
There is also wartremover but you cannot run it separately from your compile command.
