Installing Scala on Windows

• Preparation
• Method

I want to install Scala on my PC.

Preparation

I read Scala’s documentation.

Method

1. Install Java as explained in this post.
2. Install Scala (without sbt) from here.
3. Create a system variable SCALA_HOME and set it to the path of the Scala installation.
4. Add %SCALA_HOME%\jre\bin to path.
5. Open cmd and type scala. The output should look something like this.

    C:\Users\steve-rogers>scala
    Welcome to Scala 2.13.0 (Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM, Java 1.8.0_221).
    Type in expressions for evaluation. Or try :help.
