Zircon Scala Skeleton Project

This is a skeleton project for Zircon users that can be used to get started with Zircon.

Getting started

This project works on all platforms but there are some prerequisites that must be installed before you can start coding.

  1. Git. (optional) Git is a version control system. If you use GitHub you are already familiar with it. You don't need extensive Git knowledge to work with this project, but you need to install Git on your system if you want to clone / fork this project. You can get it here. Alternatively you can download the zip / tarball from the Releases page.
  2. Java This project uses Scala, so you must install a Java JDK to get started. We suggest OpenJDK but any other JDK will do. Java 8 or above is recommended.

That's all!

Setting up

In order to set up a local dev environment on your computer you need to follow these steps:

Check the project out (optional)

If you want to use Git to clone the project you need to navigate to a folder where you want to check the project out in a terminal and type the following command:

git clone https://github.com/Hexworks/zircon.skeleton.scala.git

Alternatively you can just download and extract the latest release form the Releases page.

Import the project to your IDE

We recommend setting up Zircon Scala Skeleton Project with IntelliJ IDEA:

  1. Download and install latest IntelliJ IDEA Community
  2. Install official Scala plugin for IntelliJ
  3. In the IntelliJ welcome screen choose Open (or select FileOpen... from the IntelliJ menu) and navigate to zircon.skeleton.scala directory
  4. After IntelliJ has finished syncing project files open Main.scala file avaiable at:
    src/main/scala/com/example/Main.scala
    
  5. Click the green arrow to the left of object Main extends App line to build and run sample Zircon application
  6. Have fun!
