My highly opinionated list of things needed to build an app in Scala

If you are using Play, these are reasonable alternatives to above since these have better out-of-the-box Play support:

Code Quality

sbt plugins

A nitpick: none of doobie, slick or quill is an ORM and they emphasize not being ORMs actually. How about just DB?

For configuration, there is a new project which seems very good if you are in the "toward pure software" mood: https://cir.is/
From the site:

Lightweight, extensible, and validated configuration loading in Scala and Scala.js.
The core library is dependency-free, while modules provide library integrations.
"Ciris encourages compile-time safety by defining as much as possible of your configurations in Scala"

Documentation seems to be quite good, to!
