Is anyone here developing Scala with Emacs by any chance?

By happenstance, yes

I can’t say I’m doing it very well

I am listening though 😀

From what I read ensime is a bit dead, and there is an LSP server now called something with an M 😁

I have tried my hand at lsp-mode, and it works kind of? The problem in my case I think is that I’m also using tramp

Oh that definitely adds to the pain

Wow. That sounds brave of you:)

It wouldn’t be my first choice, but it’s better than PHP, which is the alternative at my workplace

and you prefer it to using intelliJ?

I have tried the Emacs lsp plugin for Java and I have to say that it was something...different...

I haven’t really tried IntelliJ. Emacs has been sufficient, and in some cases superior because I’m editing remote files and tramp is great

All of my coworkers have to manage two git repositories to make it work with IntelliJ

docker?

(i mean, are you ssh'ing into a running docker image or is dev on a separate box)

It’s a vm in google cloud

The whole tool chain is there, and the internal github instance can only be pushed to from there, so you can’t just stop using it

I guess you could minimize using it, but it would be a lot of work and you have to be aware of company-wide changes and keep up
