"At the Scala Center, we love writing code in Scala, and we hope you do too. One of our core priorities is to communicate excitement about Scala, which motivates us to participate in the Advent of Code and share experiences solving problems with Scala with the wider programming community. Another key priority is to improve the onboarding experience for newcomers. Part of that experience comes from the first impressions someone has reading Scala code."
"This year, there was lively conversation (with spoilers duly grayed out, of course!) in the #advent-of-code channel on the Scala Discord server. Thank you to everyone who shared their code and/or helped each other come up with the best solutions. We especially thank those who offered friendly help to Scala newcomers. Community solutions 106 solutions were submitted to the website this year, including some from first-time contributors."
Advent of Code runs December 1–12 and provides daily programming puzzles. The Scala Center participates to communicate excitement about Scala and to improve newcomer onboarding. The Scala community engaged actively on the Discord #advent-of-code channel with lively conversation and spoilers grayed out. Community members shared code, helped each other, and offered friendly assistance to newcomers. The solutions website received 106 submissions, including contributions from first-time participants, and one participant submitted solutions for all 12 days. The community organized a posting schedule that produced a full set of 12 daily explainers, and contributor names appear with each entry.
