Discover how functional programming can inspire creativity with the Scala Sampler, a digital music instrument developed for the Sounds of Scala web audio library.
Discover how functional programming can inspire creativity with the Scala Sampler, a digital music instrument developed for the Sounds of Scala web audio library. This talk will showcase how Scala is as much a medium for artistic expression as it is for software development. We’ll start by breaking down the sampler’s implementation using Scala 3, Scala.js, and Typelevel Cats, then dive into its creative applications by composing arpeggio patterns with functional programming principles.
Along the way, I’ll share insights from my work in development and music production, showing how functional programming uniquely enhances artistic projects. This talk is designed for newcomers to Scala and functional programming, as well as music enthusiasts, aiming to inspire developers to explore the creative side of Scala and its applications in the arts.
During the talk, we’ll build a small effect system using solely Scala 3 context functions step-by-step.
In this talk, I will discuss why it's hard to use the power of RT to test side-effect-heavy apps.
In this talk, I will show you how to create a programming language from scratch.
In this talk, I'll introduce Bazel, exploring its core concepts and the unique aspects that set it apart from other build tools. I'll dive into some typical challenges Scala developers might face when working with Bazel.
