-Dotty is the project name for technologies that are considered for inclusion in Scala 3. Scala has
-pioneered the fusion of object-oriented and functional programming in a typed setting. Scala 3 will
-be a big step towards realizing the full potential of these ideas. Its main objectives are to
-
-- become more opinionated by promoting programming idioms we found to work well,
-- simplify where possible,
-- eliminate inconsistencies and surprising behaviors,
-- build on strong foundations to ensure the design hangs well together,
-- consolidate language constructs to improve the language’s consistency, safety, ergonomics, and performance.

-In this documentation you will find information on how to use the Dotty compiler on your machine,
-navigate through the code, setup Dotty with your favorite IDE and more!
