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).

"Reactive Streams is an engineering collaboration between heavy hitters in the area of streaming data on the JVM. With the Reactive Streams Special Interest Group, we set out to standardize a common ground for achieving statically-typed, high-performance, low latency, asynchronous streams of data with built-in non-blocking back pressure-with the goal of creating a vibrant ecosystem of interoperating implementations, and with a vision of one day making it into a future version of Java."

"Reactive Streams is an initiative to provide a standard for asynchronous stream processing with non-blocking back pressure on the JVM."

"Yesterday, James Ward, developer advocate at Typesafe, presented a webinar on building Reactive Apps with the Typesafe Platform. For those of you who missed out, or simply want to rewatch and share the session with friends and colleagues, we recorded James' presentation for your viewing pleasure!"

"Scala.Rx is an experimental change propagation library for Scala. Scala.Rx gives you Reactive variables (Rxs), which are smart variables who auto-update themselves when the values they depend on change. The underlying implementation is push-based FRP based on the ideas in Deprecating the Observer Pattern."

"In incoming Play2.1 version, a huge re-thinking has been done about JSON API provided by Play2.0.x which provides some great features but is clearly just the tip of the iceberg… Here is a first presentation of those evolutions aimed at unleashing your JSON usage in Play2 and revealing new forms of manipulation of web dataflows from/to external data systems. A usecase of this is manipulating DB structures directly using Json without any class models for document oriented structures such as MongoDB"
