Course Overview
Gain a solid understanding of programming with Scala - A course for beginners
This Scala training course from Infinite Skills teaches you everything you need to know about the Scala programming language. This course is designed for users that already have some programming experience.
You will start by learning the language basics of Scala, including sequences, recursion, and nesting functions. The course will then teach you about the object-oriented aspects of Scala, linearization of trait methods, and building and writing with XML. This video tutorial also covers text processing, parallelism and actors, and libraries for unit testing.
Once you have completed this computer based training course, you will have developed a solid working knowledge of the Scala programming language, and be able to start your own Scala-based project. Working files are included, allowing you to follow along with the author throughout the lessons.

This isn't a course for someone new to programming or Scala. Most other resources I found for Scala take a kitchen sink approach, I felt overwhelmed. This video helped clear up some issues I had with the language and gave me some new focus. Wish some other things were covered instead of Akka. Mark (the instructor) has great pace to voice and gives enough information without overload. But, again, you need to have some programming or prev. Scala experience. For tooling/IDE, the Eclipse Scala IDE afaik is deprecated. Intellij workbook just gave me headaches and I can't get VS Code to work in Scala. If like me, just use the Scala REPL for code samples.

Course starts out well but the XML and AKKA material needs to be updated. There are no updates to this course, no announcements and the instructor doesn't answer any questions.

I found the course good as it covered important foundations to build on and the introduction of the tools used to program in Scala are cutting edge. Scala does indeed provide the flexibility of dynamic language coding.
