Via Kelley Robinson, one of Martin Odersky’s slides at ScalaDays (May, 2018) is titled, “Realizing Scala’s Potential,” with these bullet points:
- become more opinionated
- simplify
- eliminate inconsistencies and puzzlers
- build on strong foundations
- consolidate language constructs to improve: consistency, safety, ergonomics, performance
As Ms. Robinson writes, “Scala was a language toolbox, and that leads to fragmentation. Scala 3 wants to become more opinionated.”
