What core capabilities does it provide?

It provides expertise in the Typelevel stack, employs the MUnit framework for TDD, models domains with ADTs, treats errors as values (Either, EitherT), and prioritizes the Bloop build server for faster compilation and testing.

When should I use this skill?

Use this skill when you need to write new Scala features, build applications with a functional approach, work within a Typelevel-based project, or follow a strict Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow. It is ideal for projects using sbt or Bloop.

What does the Scala Development skill do?

This skill enables Claude to act as a senior functional Scala developer. It specializes in writing high-quality, test-driven code using the Typelevel ecosystem (cats, cats-effect, fs2) and modern functional programming practices.

How does this skill improve my workflow?

It streamlines development by consistently applying best practices. You get idiomatic functional code, comprehensive tests from the start (TDD), and safer, more predictable error management, leading to more robust and maintainable applications.

Writes high-quality, functional Scala code using the Typelevel ecosystem and Test-Driven Development (TDD).

Acerca de

Embodying a senior Scala developer, this skill specializes in creating robust, functional applications using the Typelevel ecosystem (cats, cats-effect, fs2). It provides strong guidance on functional programming principles, such as using ADTs for domain modeling and treating errors as values. With a strict Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow, it offers clear patterns for writing tests with MUnit, handling compilation with Bloop and sbt, and implementing safe error handling. Use this skill for any task involving writing, testing, or refactoring Scala code, especially within a functional paradigm.

Características Principales

Employs a Test-Driven Development (TDD) workflow using the MUnit testing framework.
Adheres to functional programming principles and the Typelevel ecosystem (cats, cats-effect, fs2).
Avoids unsafe patterns like `Any`, `null`, and `throw` in favor of safer alternatives.
Uses Algebraic Data Types (ADTs) for domain modeling and treats errors as values (Either, EitherT).
3 GitHub stars
Provides specific commands for compiling and testing with a preference for Bloop over sbt.

Casos de Uso

Implementing new features in an existing Scala codebase following functional programming best practices.
Writing comprehensive unit and integration tests for Scala applications using MUnit.
Building a new Scala project from scratch, particularly one using the Typelevel stack.
