Build yourself a social network in 90 minutes by Nathan Dotz

The canonical introduction to any modern web framework is a heads-first dive into just how easy it is to create Yet Another Social Network with it. In this session, you'll get exactly that: a whirlwind tour of just how easy and – more importantly – fun, it is to create web applications in Play 2. Play's high productivity and developer-friendly toolchain will obliterate any preconceived notions you have about web development on the JVM. With effortless inclusion of technologies you love like CoffeeScript and LESS, all within the comfort of gloriously type-safe routing and asynchronous responses, you'll be so hooked you won't even realize you're writing in deliciously functional Scala!
