Technical requirements

This chapter is long and contains lots of examples to explain the concepts that are introduced. All of the examples are self-contained, and we encourage you to try them yourself as you move through the chapter. You will need a working Scala environment to run these examples.

You can choose to configure it by following the steps outlined in Chapter 2 or use an online Scala playground such as Scastie (https://scastie.scala-lang.org/). We will use Scala 2.12 as the language version.
