Re:Show HN: Motif – Scala-like pattern matching with Java 8

Question - I don't know much about Scala - how often does one need to do a full build? I am talking regular development cycle, ie make a change, save/compile, check if it works etc. I mean typically a compiled language will have some 'incremental compile' to compile just the file you edited. Does that work with Scala?

Not often at all.

sbt[1] supports incremental compilation and projects such as Play[2] leverage this to support "on-the-fly" recompilation while the container remains running.
