What happened to essential macros training?

[davegurnell]

Hello, We don’t currently offer a full course on macros, but we do occasionally cover them as an additional module on our Advanced Scala courses. We tend to find that techniques like tagless final en doing and libraries like shapeless provide most of the big functionality you might want from macros. Also IDE compatibility for macros is poor and forthcoming changes in Dotty are a big downside to adoption. That said, small one-or-two line macros can be useful to provide a last bit of friendly syntax on top of another approach, so that’s typically what I use them for if I use them at all. I hope that helps! Feel free to get in touch if you want to discuss booking training for your team. Here’s a web form that comes through to me: https://underscore.io/training/bookings/. Dave
