Ammonite is a modern Scala REPL and scripting tool designed to give Scala users a more interactive and flexible REPL experience and to free them from heavyweight project boilerplate.

In the REPL, Ammonite can survive compiler errors (by restarting the compiler internally) and preserve session state, improving resilience compared to the default Scala REPL. ...
