"These are the major new features added since Slick 1.0.1: A code generator that reverse-engineers the database schema and generates all code required for working with Slick. New driver architecture to allow support for non-SQL, non-JDBC databases. Table definitions in the Lifted Embedding use a new syntax which is slightly more verbose but also more robust and logical, avoiding several pitfalls from earlier versions. Table definitions (and their * projections) are not restricted to flat tuples of columns anymore. They can use any type that would be valid as the return type of a Query. The old projection concatenation methods ~ and ~: are still supported but not imported by default. In addition to Scala tuples, Slick supports its own HList abstraction for records of arbitrary size. You can also add support for your own record types with only a few lines of code. All record types can be used everywhere (including table definitions and mapped projections) and they can be mixed and nested arbitrarily. Soft inserts are now the default, i.e. AutoInc columns are automatically skipped when inserting with +=, ++=, insert and insertAll. This means that you no longer need separate projections (without the primary key) for inserts. There are separate methods forceInsert and forceInsertAll in JdbcProfile for the old behavior. A new model for pre-compiled queries replaces the old QueryTemplate abstraction. Any query (both, actual collection-valued Query objects and scalar queries) or function from Column types to such a query can now be lifted into a Compiled wrapper. Lifted functions can be applied (without having to recompile the query), and you can use both monadic composition of Compiled values or just get the underlying query and use that for further composition. Pre-compiled queries can now be used for update and delete operations in addition to querying. threadLocalSession has been renamed to dynamicSession and the corresponding methods have distinct names (e.g. w

un issue que scala debe resolver si quiere crecer!!! 

Reactive-web is a new framework for writing highly interactive and dynamic web applications. It's written in Scala , sits on top of Lift, and uses the Functional Reactive Programming library reactive-core (it's in the same repository). As in GWT, you can code the user interface in the same language as the rest of your application (except in Scala instead of Java), rather than writing JavaScript. Unlike GWT, however, you don't need an extra build step to convert your code to JavaScript. You can easily combine code that runs on the browser with code that runs on the server. And, you can declare dynamic relationships between components, like binding in Flex/JavaFX/etc. (only much more powerful).
