What we’re about
This is the first ZIO Meetup Group in NYC!
This meetup exists to share knowledge of ZIO and the broader ecosystem in functional Scala, and to connect Scala developers to the people and knowledge necessary for them to excel at their workplaces.
Join this meetup if you want to learn how functional Scala can help you solve the most complex and challenging requirements in today's fast-paced business environments.
About Scala
Scala is a functional programming language with a powerful type system that helps you write robust concurrent, asynchronous, and distributed applications, with fewer bugs and lower cost of maintenance than other programming languages.
About ZIO
ZIO is a zero-dependency Scala library for asynchronous and concurrent programming.
Powered by highly-scalable, non-blocking fibers that never waste or leak resources, ZIO lets you build scalable, resilient, and reactive applications that meet the needs of your business.
