#Building Applications with Scala This is the code repository for Building Applications with Scala, published by Packt. It contains all the supporting project files necessary to work through the book from start to finish.
Scala is known for incorporating both object-oriented and functional programming into a concise and extremely powerful package. However, creating an app in Scala can get a little tricky because of the complexity the language has. This book will help you dive straight into app development by creating a real, reactive, and functional application. We will provide you with practical examples and instructions using a hands-on approach that will give you a firm grounding in reactive functional principles.
##Instructions and Navigations
All of the code is organized into folders. Each folder starts with a number followed by the application name. For example, Chapter02.
The code will look like the following:
package scalabook.javacode.chap1;
public class HelloWorld {
public static void main(String args[]){
System.out.println("Hellow World");
}
}
The book is not compatible with Scala 2.12 because Play framework which currently is on version 2.5.X and it only works with scala 2.11. Next Play will work with Scala 2.12 but this Play is not availiable now.
This book is for professionals who want learn scala, functional, and reactive techniques. This book is mainly focused to software developers, engineers, and architects. This is a practical book with practical code; however, we also have enough theory about functional and reactive programming.
All chapter have code files.
