Scala runs on the Java platform (Java virtual machine) and is compatible with existing Java programs. [15] As Android applications are typically written in Java and translated from Java bytecode into Dalvik bytecode (which may be further translated to native machine code during installation) when packaged, Scala's Java compatibility makes it well-suited to Android development, the more so when ...

Chisel is based on Scala as a domain-specific language (DSL). Chisel inherits the object-oriented and functional programming aspects of Scala for describing digital hardware. Using Scala as a basis allows describing circuit generators. High quality, free access documentation exists in several languages. [4]
Individual machine languages are specific to a family of processors; machine-language code for one family of processors cannot run directly on processors in another family unless the processors in question have additional hardware to support it (for example, DEC VAX processors included a PDP-11 compatibility mode).
In the language Scala, early versions allowed curly braces only. Scala 3 added an option to use indenting to structure blocks. Designer Martin Odersky said that this was the single most important way Scala 3 improved his own productivity, that it makes programs over 10% shorter and keeps programmers "in the flow", and advises its use.

Lift is a free and open-source web framework that is designed for the Scala programming language. It was originally created by David Pollak who was dissatisfied with certain aspects of the Ruby on Rails framework. [3] Lift was launched as an open source project on 26 February 2007 under the Apache License 2.0.
sbt is the de facto build tool in the Scala community, [6] used, for example, by the Scala 2 and Scala 3 compilers themselves, [7] [8] Play Framework, and Lichess, a popular chess server. The sbt project is "bootstrapped" — it uses sbt to build itself and considers dogfooding a positive feature.
In Scala 2, an ADT may be defined with: [citation needed] sealed abstract class Tree extends Product with Serializable object Tree { final case object Empty extends Tree final case class Node ( value : Int , left : Tree , right : Tree ) extends Tree }
