Deconstructing Dotty, Felix Mulder
Dotty is a next generation compiler aimed at trying new language concepts and compiler technologies for Scala. In this talk I aim to explore the future of Scala from a compiler engineer's perspective. I will explore the compiler pipeline, type inferencing, library rewrite rules and compiler optimizations as well as giving an overall view of the differences between Scala and the Dotty version of Scala.
Felix Mulder is a member of Martin Odersky's Dotty team at EPFL in Lausanne
