Yep, the builds are in Scala, but you dont need to be an expert any more than you need to be a groovy expert to use gradle. Anyone with programming experience should hopefully be able to learn enough to be productive with Mill without needing to get to deep (or at least that's what I hope to achieve!)

> you dont need to be an expert

I don't doubt that. Your Scala libraries tend to be simpler than the rest of the communities.
