Who This Book Is For
If you want to increase your understanding of Scala and apply design patterns to real-life application development, then this book is for you.Prior knowledge of Scala language is assumed/ expected.
What You Will Learn
- Immerse yourself in industry-standard design patterns-structural, creational, and behavioral-to create extraordinary applications
- See the power of traits and their application in Scala
- Implement abstract and self types and build clean design patterns
- Build complex entity relationships using structural design patterns
- Create applications faster by applying functional design patterns
In Detail
Design patterns make developers' lives easier by helping them write great software that is easy to maintain, runs efficiently, and is valuable to the company or people concerned. You'll learn about the various features of Scala and will be able to apply well-known, industry-proven design patterns in your work.
The book starts off by focusing on some of the most interesting and latest features of Scala while using practical real-world examples. We will be learning about IDE's and Aspect Oriented Programming. We will be looking into different components in Scala. We will also cover the popular "Gang of Four" design patterns and show you how to incorporate functional patterns effectively. The book ends with a practical example that demonstrates how the presented material can be combined in real-life applications. You'll learn the necessary concepts to build enterprise-grade applications.
By the end of this book, you'll have enough knowledge and understanding to quickly assess problems and come up with elegant solutions.
Style and approach
The design patterns in the book are explained using real-world, step-by-step examples. For each design pattern, there are tips on when to use it and when to look for something more suitable. This book can also be used as a practical guide, showing you how to leverage design patterns effectively. We've designed the book to be used as a quick reference guide while creating applications.
