The Scala organization has released the Scala Toolkit, version 0.2.0, a bundle of pre-existing libraries from the ecosystem that work together to perform common programming tasks. The Toolkit is designed to lower the onboarding barrier for newcomers and offer default choices for coders who want to get something done without evaluating competing libraries. It includes concise tutorials, short code examples, and can be used with Scala CLI, sbt, Mill, and Maven. The Toolkit aims to be approachable and does not require advanced knowledge of Scala or its ecosystem. The current version includes libraries for working with files and processes, parsing JSON, sending HTTP requests, and unit testing.
