SBT Tutorial Monorepo

Learning Scala and SBT by following "Get Programming with Scala" by Manning.

This is a monorepo containing chapter-wise SBT projects. Each lesson/chapter has its own independent SBT project.

Why a Monorepo?

• Isolation: Each lesson is independent and can be run separately
• Organization: Easy to navigate and find specific lesson examples
• Learning: Clear progression through the book
• Version Control: Single git repository for all lessons

Working with a Lesson

Each lesson is a complete SBT project. To work with a specific lesson:

# Navigate to the lesson directory
cd lesson-09

# Start SBT console
sbt

# Compile the project
sbt compile

# Run tests
sbt test

# Run a specific main class
sbt run

Current Lessons

• Lesson 9: Import and create packages

  • Demonstrates package creation (my.example.io)
  • Example: MyExample.scala - File reading utility class

• Lesson 54: Apache Pekko HTTP Server - Todo App

  • In-memory todo application with server-rendered HTML
  • Demonstrates Pekko HTTP routing, form handling, and HTML generation
  • Features: Add, view, toggle, delete todos with a clean web interface

Adding New Lessons

When you reach a new lesson in the book:

1. Create a new directory: lesson-XX/
2. Add a build.sbt file with appropriate dependencies
3. Create src/main/scala/ directory structure
4. Add a README.md explaining what the lesson covers
5. Implement the examples from the book
