Scala Days, the premier Scala Conference is held twice a year. One in Europe and the other one in the United States of America. 2016 was an amazing year for both conferences with even more attendees and an incredible speaker line-up. As a little surprise gearing towards the end of the year, we tweeted the top 10 talks from both conferences on the @ScalaDays Twitter handle. And here is the list in all it's glory for your viewing pleasure during the holidays!
And remember, 2017 Scala Days Conferences will be held in Chicago on April 18 - 21, 2017 and in Copenhagen, on May 30 - June 2 ,2017. Now is the time to submit sessions and save the dates!
was heldat New World Stages in New York from May 9th through 11th, 2016. Additional information can be found on the archived page.
