Who this book is for

This book is aimed for people who already have some knowledge of Scala, but want to get a more practical understanding of how to apply it in real-world application development. This book is also useful as a reference to consult while designing applications. Having an understanding of the importance of using best practices and writing nice code is good; however, even if you don't, hopefully, you will be convinced by the time you finish reading this book. Prior knowledge of design patterns is not required, but if you are familiar with some, this book will be useful, as we will take a look at them from the point of view of Scala.
