 ——————— \n\n 🗣️ Greg Dorrell: Experiences moving to Sca
 la 3 \n\n Scala 2.13 was first released 5 years ago. Scala 3 arrived 3 yea
 rs ago. Last month\, our team completed the migration of our team’s flag
 ship service from Scala 2.13 to Scala 3.4. Why did it take so long? What w
 ere the challenges in moving? In this talk we’ll find out one team’s e
 xperience and the lessons learnt along the way. We’ll also reflect on an
 y pros &amp\; cons after moving (spoiler alert: IDE support). Then we’ll
  look at what’s left to do after our initial migration\, and upcoming Sc
 ala 3 features we’re excited about. \n\n ⭐ Greg Dorrell ⭐\nGreg is a
  software engineer at Expedia\, and he’s been working with Scala for 12 
 years. He spent 5 years in finance before moving to the travel industry. H
 e’s enjoyed the journey from ‘Jala’ and Spring\, to Akka\, to Typele
 vel\, and then away from tagless final and monad transformers. Along the w
 ay\, he got excited about Scala.js\, but alas never got to use it for work
 . \n\n 🗣️ Miles Sabin: Grackle: Compiling GraphQL to efficient SQL \n
 \n This is a talk about Grackle\, a purely functional GraphQL engine built
  for the Typelevel stack\, a perfect fit for applications built with Cats\
 , Cats Effect\, FS2\, Doobie and Skunk.\nGraphQL is a query language for t
 yped APIs. Talk of languages and types might make you think of compilers .
 .. and you’d be right to! I will show how we can compile GraphQL queries
  into programs in a simple internal query language\, type check those prog
 rams\, and then transform them into efficient SQL queries\, both eliminati
 ng over-fetching\, and avoiding the notorious GraphQL N+1 problem. \n\n 
 ⭐ Miles Sabin ⭐\nMiles has been doing stuff with Scala for more than a
  decade\, currently with Underscore Consulting. He is a co-founder of Type
 level and his best known project\, the Scala generic programming library S
 hapeless\, is the weapon of choice wherever boilerplate needs to be scrapp
 ed or arities abstracted over. \n\n ————————————
