Scala is .
Let's try creating a simple program using basic development tools.
- Prerequisite: Scala development environment setup
Creating the First Program in Scala
Using Scala 3 with sbt:
$ cat build.sbt
scalaVersion := "3.1.2"
mkdir hello-world && cd $_
sbt
$ sbt
[info] Updated file /home/harry/Projects/codeandtips/code/scala/hello-world/project/build.properties: set sbt.version to 1.6.2
[info] welcome to sbt 1.6.2 (Private Build Java 17.0.2)
[info] loading project definition from /home/harry/Projects/codeandtips/code/scala/hello-world/project
[info] set current project to hello-world (in build file:/home/harry/Projects/codeandtips/code/scala/hello-world/)
[info] sbt server started at local:///home/harry/.sbt/1.0/server/c3760365d47f3349d9fa/sock
[info] started sbt server

More command help available using 'help <command>' for:
!, +, ++, +-, <, ^, ^^, alias, append, apply, clearCaches, client, eval, iflast, java+, java++, onFailure, reboot, shell, startServer
// without creating hello-world folder,
$ sbt new scala/scala-seed.g8
