Best Gitter channels on: Scala

Ola Kohut -

Scala is an object-oriented functional language that has gained wide acceptance in developer communities for many of its merits, including runtime performance & stability, developer productivity, access to libraries, ease of learning, use for both static and dynamic language coders, as well as good libraries and language facilities for building concurrent and distributed applications. We have plenty of channels on Gitter dedicated to Scala — dive in & enjoy!

  • scala/scala — Channel dedicated to the Scala programming language http://www.scala-lang.org/.
    akka/akka — Channel for all Akka enthusiasts — newbies as well as gurus — for the exchange of knowledge and the coordination of efforts around Akka.
