All the projects I didn't finish, and why it was worth it

In this talk, I'll go through a couple of these projects, and share some of what they've taught me, as well as how their legacy affected other projects in the ecosystem. And who knows, maybe you'll get inspired to try something crazy with Scala too?

About This Talk

Over a decade of working with Scala, I've started some projects that never quite took off.
