This video shows web3j-scala,
an idiomatic Scala wrapper I wrote around web3j,
which is a Java 8 version of web3.js.
These 3 libraries all leverage the
json-rpc
protocol that all Ethereum clients support.
Web3j is a lightweight, reactive, somewhat type-safe library for Java and Android that integrates with nodes on Ethereum blockchains.
Web3j-scala provides type safety and enhanced scalability over its Java and JavaScript cousins,
as well as the pleasure of writing solutions in Scala.
