    ♞ lichess.org: the forever free, adless and open source chess server ♞

    Play has gone out of fashion. It was donated to the community (which is doing a pretty good job, to be fair). It's the Rails/Django of the Scala ecosystem. You can use it for any kind of web app really: the archetypal todo app, pet store, twitter clone... You might want to check out the lichess codebase if you're curious about bigger projects.

  • endless

    endless is a library to build distributed systems in functional Scala using a pluggable runtime model (by endless4s)

    Akka is more a toolkit than a framework. It's built upon the actor model, but I would say most real-world usage doesn't care about that, but rather high-level components such as Akka streams, persistence and clustering. Maybe try to build something with endless4s.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
