Justin Kaeser at #ScalaUA - Integrating Developer Experience - Build Server Protocol and beyond

Justin Kaeser discusses the Build Server Protocol and how it enables IDEs like IntelliJ to interface with various Scala build tools.

Justin Kaeser at #ScalaUA - Integrating Developer Experience - Build Server Protocol and beyond IDEs - Integrated Development Environments - traditionally provide out of the box support for many of the tasks that go into making working software out of source code. But increasingly, developers expect to be able to use any one of a variety of special-purpose tools for each task. This shifts the focus of the IDE from ""Integrated"" to ""Integrating"" external tools into a coherent experience. Especially in the Scala ecosystem, we have an increasing number of build tools to choose from. Justin has been focusing on integrating sbt and other new tools with the IntelliJ Scala plugin and talks about challenges involved and how the Build Server Protocol makes it possible for IntelliJ to interface with any build tool.
