Building a Secure Distributed Social Web using Scala & Scala-JS
Please log in to watch this conference skillscast.
In order to avoid duplication of code and to give us maximum flexibility we have developed banana-rdf [3] - a scala RDF library that allows us to elegantly write code that can be used both on the web client using scala-js and on the server, whilst allowing us to change implementation with one line of code. On the client we gain maximum speed with a scala-js wrapping of the Facebook React framework, allowing us to write clean functional code.
This project is open source with more details on the wiki https://github.com/read-write-web/wiki/wiki
