This is the companion code repository for the Modern Web Development with Scala book published by Leanpub.

The starting-point tag marks the initial state of a model application that is used throughout the book for demonstrating different aspects of Web development. In particular the book illustrates the following:

• Querying remote services with the WSclient
• Using MacWire for injecting dependencies in Play 2.5
• Using ScalikeJDBC for accessing PostgreSQL
• Integrating Play with React and Webpack
• Working with JSON and using Play Forms API
• Using Akka Actors
• Using HTTP filters and action composition in Play

The code uses Play 2.5.0 and Scala 2.11.7 along with sbt 0.13.11.
