Welcome to another week in #Scala. We’re a bit light this week on submissions, so if you find yourself hungry for a little more Scala goodness, skip back a few weeks and see if there’s anything you’ve missed. Or even better, find a topic you dont fully understand, grok it, then blog about it for the rest of us! Enjoy!
