Main concepts for Scala

This section introduces you to the most common aspects of writing a Play application in Scala. You'll learn about handling HTTP requests, sending HTTP responses, working with different types of data, using databases and much more.

Note: The Play APIs for Scala and Java are separated into different packages. All the Scala APIs are under the play.api package; all the Java APIs are under play. For example, the Scala MVC API is under play.api.mvc and the Java MVC API is under play.mvc.
