Scala Days, the premier Scala Conference, will be held this year at Swissôtel in Chicago. Trainings will be on April 18th - 19th, 2017, and the conference will be held from April 19th - 21st, 2017. The conference will start after the trainings - so don't panic, you can attend both training and conference! There will also be a Scala Days Europe at the Bella Center in Copenhagen on May 30th - June 2nd, 2017.
The conference will bring together developers from all corners of the world to share their experiences and new ideas around creating applications with Scala and related technologies, like Akka and Play Framework. Scala Days provides a unique opportunity for Scala users to interact with the contributors to the language and related technologies and connect with fellow developers.
Leaders from Scala User Groups and communities around the globe, students and language contributors, will gather to discuss academic research, use-cases and visionary projects for a two day, action-packed event.
Last year’s conferences in New York and Berlin were sold-out events!
