Checklist for learning Scala

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on dev.to

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time
  • Mergify - Tired of breaking your main and manually rebasing outdated pull requests?
  • SonarQube - Static code analysis for 29 languages.
  • Scalatra

    Tiny Scala high-performance, async web framework, inspired by Sinatra

    Start collaborating on an open-source library: this point was a bit more complicated than I thought. Many libraries are either too big or have too many contributors already or are too advanced for a beginner or don’t have good-first-issues. I decided to settle down on Scalatra because I was already using it in my demo project.

  • scalatraseed

    Find a project/application to build with Scala: a web app that supports most technologies that are required these days for a fully-featured website. I called it scalatraseed since it uses the Scalatra web framework at its core.

  • InfluxDB

    Collect and Analyze Billions of Data Points in Real Time. Manage all types of time series data in a single, purpose-built database. Run at any scale in any environment in the cloud, on-premises, or at the edge.

  • Find/create Scala cheat sheet: here

  • Scalastyle

    scalastyle

    Find a code conventions document: the online Scala course that I’ve started uses Scalastyle for enforcing the style of the code. If it’s good enough for the Scala core team, it’s good enough for me.

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
