Scala 3 is the latest major release of the Scala language—featuring a complete compiler rewrite (Dotty), new syntax with optional braces and given/using contextual abstractions, union/intersection types, opaque types, first-class enums, and better type inference. It unifies object-oriented and functional programming paradigms into a safer, more expressive language running on the JVM with full Java interoperability.
Features
- Optional braces with indentation-sensitive syntax
- given and using replacing implicit for clearer context
- First-class enums and union/intersection types
- Opaque types for abstraction without runtime overhead
- Powerful macros and metaprogramming via inline and compile-time ops
- Improved type inference, overload resolution, and reduced boilerplate
