TOOLING TALKS

INTRO

If you're a Scala developer there is almost no doubt you use either IntelliJ or Metals with your editor of choice. Whether you're using IntelliJ, or Metals which utilizes BSP, or maybe even IntelliJ with BSP, you're using some of the handy work of Justin. This month Justin and I sit and chat all about IntelliJ and Scala, the Build Server Protocol, and what some of the future of programming could look like in Scala. I'm pretty fascinated with this topic lately and looking at the current limitations we have in the Scala tooling ecosystem, and thinking about how they could be challenged. I'm grateful that Justin took the time and chat and also grateful for all the work he's put into making integrations in Scala tooling seamless.
