A Tour of Ox 1.0 - Direct Style Concurrency and Resiliency

Explore Ox 1.0, a comprehensive toolkit for safe concurrency and resiliency in Scala applications through this 42-minute conference talk from Scala Days 2025. Discover how to build direct-style Scala applications using Ox's structured concurrency features, starting with lower-level concurrency scopes and progressing to higher-level concurrency operators. Learn about Ox's approach to error management and type safety, examine its direct-but-reactive streaming library capabilities, and understand the built-in resiliency toolkit for robust application development. Gain insights into the two-year development journey that led to this final product release, and explore future plans for both Ox specifically and direct-style Scala programming in general through practical, code-first demonstrations presented by Adam Warski from SoftwareMill.
