Come and meet other software developers interested in the Scala programming language in the London area. Talks are normally held at Skills Matter on the 2nd Wednesday of the month.
You can find and join all our meetups by the London Scala Users' Group (LSUG) community on these pages here.
London Scala are also running a Coding Dojo every 3rd Thursday of the month, the current source code is:
twitter: @LondonScala and we use the hashtag #londonscala
We have a chart group at:
http://groups.google.com/group/scala-london
You can find SkillsCast recordings, including film, code and slides of past talks and events here.
We hope to see you soon!

Drone Delivery Queue
Featuring Leszek Silwko
The presentation is about release/build process we setup in my team. The novelty here was to integrate the images building as a result of a story (i.e. not the code changes). Then the images are moved through environments – such a process guarantees the release on prod is exactly the same system...

Immutability for scale and reliability
Featuring Francesco Cesarini
The functional paradigm has been influencing mainstream languages for decades, making developers more efficient whilst helping reduce maintenance costs. As we are faced with a programming model that needs to scale on multi-core architectures and distributed environments, concurrency becomes...

Combining BDD and DDD with functional Scala: How BADD can it get?
Featuring Oleg Volkov
“Functional and Reactive Domain Modeling” by D. Ghosh combines classic object-oriented DDD with functional programming in Scala. Although powerful, the book’s methodology leaves key questions unanswered, such as “How to choose a particular model among alternatives? How to split a model into...
