The Future of Scala
summary
Scala 3 brings new metaprogramming to replace Scala 2 macros while migration of the ecosystem is likely to be bumpy; the talk outlines upgrade strategies and presents Fury, an experimental tool that compiles mixed Scala 2 and 3 projects, treats builds as source dependencies and structured data, and uses Bloop as backend to run parallel compiles (demo: ~20 projects in ~10s). Fury can fork a dependency into an editable local checkout, offers schemas for cross‑building, and enters a staged private beta with VirtusLab support.
