ScalaDays NYC (2016)

KeyNote:

• Scalajs is matured enough to be used for Production systems.
• Macros, procedual syntax and early initializers are gone.
• 2.12 introduces effect system and meta programming.
• Dotty the new compiler - faster than current scala.
• Scala will be forked into multiple projects - core, platform etc etc in 2.13.
• Scala Native got opensourced - very early to adopt but something cool to work for in near future.
