What's New in Scala 3? presented by Dean Wampler

Details

Scala 3 introduces significant changes to Scala that address many known limitations and pain points and sets the stage for future growth of the language. At the same time, Scala 3 attempts to make migration as painless as possible.

While researching the forthcoming Third Edition of Programming Scala (http://programming-scala.com/), which focuses on Scala 3, I learned a lot about the changes and developed opinions about their strengths and
weaknesses. I'll demonstrate several of the more important changes and
offer my thoughts about them in this talk.
