"The goal of this document is to serve as a starting point for the student of Haskell wishing to gain a firm grasp of its standard type classes. The essentials of each type class are introduced, with examples, commentary, and extensive references for further reading."

Spire is a numeric library for Scala which is intended to be generic, fast, and precise. Using features such as specialization, macros, type classes, and implicits, Spire works hard to defy conventional wisdom around performance and precision trade-offs. A major goal is to allow developers to write efficient numeric code without having to "bake in" particular numeric representations. In most cases, generic implementations using Spire's specialized type classes perform identically to corresponding direct implementations.

Functional dependencies are a near-standard extension to Haskell (present in GHC and elsewhere) which allow constraints on the type parameters of type classes to be expressed and then enforced by the compiler.

"Let the Scala compiler work for you. We provide type classes, instances, conversions, supplements to the standard library, and much more."

"Scalaz is a Scala library for functional programming. It provides purely functional data structures to complement those from the Scala standard library. It defines a set of foundational type classes (e.g. Functor, Monad) and corresponding instances for a large number of data structures."

"HPaste unlocks the rich functionality of HBase for a Scala audience. In so doing, it attempts to achieve the following goals: Provide a strong, clear syntax for querying and filtration Perform as fast as possible while maintaining idiomatic Scala client code -- the abstractions should not show up in a profiler! Re-articulate HBase's data structures rather than force it into an ORM-style atmosphere. A rich set of base classes for writing MapReduce jobs in hadoop against HBase tables. Provide a maximum amount of code re-use between general Hbase client usage, and operation from within a MapReduce job. Use Scala's type system to its advantage--the compiler should verify the integrity of the schema. Be a verbose DSL--minimize boilerplate code, but be human readable!"

Otro "must-see" pero para los que estén laburando en Scala.
