Installation of Scala and sbt
Scala is a general-purpose programming language combining object-oriented and functional programming in one concise, high-level language. Scala’s static types help avoid bugs in complex applications, and its JVM and JavaScript runtimes let you build high-performance systems with easy access to huge ecosystems of libraries.
The interactive build tool sbt is built for Scala and Java projects.
Please download and install them using the following links:
- JDK >= 17 - https://www.oracle.com/java/technologies/downloads/
- sbt - https://www.scala-sbt.org/download.html
- Scala - https://www.scala-lang.org/download/
