The Akka Framework training course builds on the Introduction to Scala course, with a focus on building web applications with the Akka framework.
This course begins with a quick review of key Akka and web application development concepts leveraged by Akka, including things like the MVC design pattern, convention over configuration, etc. It then transitions into a discussion around the Akka architecture, key components, and walks through the creation of a simple application. Once the foundation is laid, this course takes a deeper dive and explores the more commonly used features like templating, persistence, and webservices.
By attending Akka Framework workshop, delegates will learn to:
- Describe the key architectural components of the Akka framework
- Install and configure Akka
- Create a "full-featured" Akka-based application including database interactions and templating
- This Akka Framework class is ideal for Scala developers looking to build web applications with the Akka framework.
