Functional programming simplified

This book makes the process of learning functional programming (FP) in Scala as simple as possible by breaking down complex topics into small, bite-size chunks that are easy to understand. The lessons are presented in a logical sequence — the order in which the author learned them — culminating in advanced topics like functional domain modeling, and how to write and use monads.

Scala with Cats

The main goal of this book is to teach system architecture and design using the techniques of modern functional programming. This means designing systems as small composable units, expressing constraints and interactions via the type system, and using composition to guide the construction of large systems in a way that maintains the original architectural vision.

Reactive Design Patterns

Reactive Design Patterns is a clearly written guide for building message-driven distributed systems that are resilient, responsive, and elastic. In this book you'll find patterns for messaging, flow control, resource management, and concurrency, along with practical issues like test-friendly designs. All patterns include concrete examples using Scala and Akka.
