About this Book

Play is a Scala web framework with built-in advantages: Scala''s strong type system helps deliver bug-free code, and the Akka framework helps achieve hassle-free concurrency and peak performance. Play builds on the web''s stateless nature for excellent scalability, and because it is event-based and nonblocking, you''ll find it to be great for near real-time applications.
