Welcome to another week in #Scala. We’ve a great post on Akka for developers with a Spring background by our very own Jan. There’s also a great article on one of Scalaz’s clever features. (For those unfamiliar with and those not too keen Scalaz I implore you to have a quick look! It’s friendlier than you think!!)
Enjoy!
