New Scala Projects course by RockTheJVM: rockthejvm.com/courses/scal.... This looks like a great next step after learning Scala basics!

I had fun contributing the new SimpleTable class to the ScalaSql query library. It lets you drop the `T[_]` from table definitions, and it's based on named tuples and structural types in Scala 3.7. Have a read.
