IronSource
IronSource
Originally founded by a team of developers building consumer applications, the ironSource founders realized just how difficult it is to turn apps into a business. So they built an extensive suite of tools to help app developers succeed, and quickly became the market leader in application monetization and distribution. Since then, the company has continued in the same vein, continually building comprehensive solutions that power the free-to-play economy.

Impromptu: Using Dependent Types to Build a Better API for Async Call Graphs
Featuring Jon Pretty
Writing asynchronous code is often an uneasy fit for a language like Scala. While high-level constructs like Futures facilitate asynchronous programming, syntactic limitations often make blocking or the unchecked access of asynchronously-computed values more natural than the safer alternatives.

Away With the Types!
Featuring Dave Gurnell
Static types are fantastic for ensuring code quality, but rather annoyingly they have to be defined at compile time. What happens when you need to determine the structure of your data at run time, for example when you have to load schemas from a database?

Refinement Types in Practice
Featuring Peter Mortier
When you first learn scala, coming from another language such as Java, you'll probably fall in love with the Option type. This type protects you from bugs because you know that the value wrapped in an Option might be absent and if you have a plain value, you know it will never be null.

Lightning talk - Optic Algebras: Beyond Immutable Data Structures
Featuring Jesus Lopez Gonzalez
Optics (Lens, Traversal, etc.) are great abstractions that allow you to carry out complex state transformations using high-level design patterns. However, current optic libraries are restricted to work with in-memory data structures. In fact, this limitation might be one of the causes why optics...
