Filtering by: Scala Talks: Hands-On Capture Checking & Scala Native live-coding ☀️ ×

Due to popular demand, Anton is back with more Scala Native! He'll be taking us on a journey of working with C libraries, marrying C code with SN interop, and maybe writing some assembly.

⭐ Anton Sviridov ⭐ Scala enthusiast, open source contributor, and blog author. Worked in Data Science, distributed systems, and programming language tooling. Recently I have been diving deeper into systems programming languages and the lessons we can learn from them to be applicable to Scala Native.

Capture checking is an experimental Scala feature and one of the building blocks of the very trendy direct style programming. It’s also, not to put too fine a point on it, a little confusing. In this live coding session, we will explore the aspects that most Scala users will be exposed to, as understood by a regular developer after poring over the very academic documentation and experimenting with nightly builds.
