Scala combines object-oriented and functional programming in one concise, high-level language. Scala's static types help avoid bugs in complex applications, and its JVM and JavaScript runtimes let you build high-performance systems with easy access to huge ecosystems of libraries. Scastie is Scala + sbt in your browser! You can use any version of Scala, or even alternate backends such as Dotty, Scala.js, Scala Native, and Typelevel Scala. You can use any published library. You can save and share Scala programs/builds with anybody. The Scala Library Index (or Scaladex) is a representation of a map of all published Scala libraries. With Scaladex, a developer can now query more than 175,000 releases of Scala libraries. Scaladex is officially supported by Scala Center. In Scala, functions are values, and can be defined as anonymous functions with a concise syntax. In Scala, case classes are used to represent structural data types.
Features
- Scala runs on the JVM, so Java and Scala stacks can be freely mixed for totally seamless integration
- So the type system doesn’t feel so static. Don’t work for the type system. Let the type system work for you!
- Use data-parallel operations on collections, use actors for concurrency and distribution, or futures for asynchronous programming
- Combine the flexibility of Java-style interfaces with the power of classes. Think principled multiple-inheritance
- Think “switch” on steroids. Match against class hierarchies, sequences, and more
- Functions are first-class objects. Compose them with guaranteed type safety. Use them anywhere, pass them to anything
