A comment on Literate SQL. Parent comment

I can sympathize.

For me, that's Scala JVM on the server, ScalaTags/ScalaCSS/ScalaJS in the web browser, Slick for the ORM, and SBT for the build system. The bliss of learn once, program anywhere.

When this hits reality though, I use Relate https://github.com/lucidsoftware/relate (disclaimer: I'm a contributor)

It's SQL, but with minimal syntactic overhead.

    sql"SELECT * FROM users WHERE email IN ($emails)".asList[User]()

Since you're already using Slick, what's the difference between Relate and Slick's native SQL literals[1]?

Or Anorm [1] for that matter. They're all pretty similar in the idea of typed Scala string interpolation.
