Post #3238583

I'm looking at a little bit of code that, in order to do basic auth in a (very simple) web app, requires understanding Kleisli, IO, and a bunch of other rather arcane concepts. I love to hate on Spring Boot as much as the next guy, but it's hard to justify favouring the Scala complexity (and the, I'm not exagerating, days of work to get this working) over the somewhat black magic of Spring Boot that gets you something working in an hour and you can move on with your life and never look back.
