Access the power of baremetal systems programming with Scala Native, an aheadoftime Scala compiler. Without the baggage of legacy frameworks and virtual machines, Scala Native lets you reimagine how your programs interact with your operating system. Compile Scala code down to native machine instructions; seamlessly invoke operating system APIs for lowlevel networking and IO; control pointers, arrays, and other memory management techniques for extreme performance; and enjoy instant startup times. Skip the JVM and improve your code performance by getting close to the metal.Developers generally build systems on top of the work of those who came before, accumulating layer upon layer of abstraction. Scala Native provides a rare opportunity to remove layers. Without the JVM, Scala Native uses POSIX and ANSI C APIs to build concise, expressive programs that run unusually close to bare metal. Scala Native compiles Scala code down to native machine instructions instead of JVM bytecode. It starts up fast, without the sluggish warmup phase that's common for justintime compilers. Scala Native programs can seamlessly invoke operating system APIs for lowlevel networking and IO. And Scala Native lets you control pointers, arrays, and other memory layout types for extreme performance.Write practical, baremetal code with Scala Native, step by step. Understand the foundations of systems programming, including pointers, arrays, strings, and memory management. Use the UNIX socket API to write network client and server programs without the sort of frameworks higherlevel languages rely on. Put all the pieces together to design and implement a modern, asynchronous microservicestyle HTTP framework from scratch. Take advantage of Scala Native's clean, modern syntax to write lean, highperformance code without the JVM.What You Need:A modern Windows, Mac OS, or Linux system capable of running Docker. All code examples in the book are designed to run on a portable Dockerbased build environment that runs anywhere. If you don't have Docker yet, see the Appendix for instructions on how to get it.
