In the fast-evolving world of Scala development, some powerful libraries remain under the radar despite offering great capabilities, especially when combined with ZIO.

In this presentation, Jorge Vásquez will explore a selection of five lesser-known but highly useful libraries (all with Scala 3 support!) which empower developers to handle diverse data-processing tasks with ease:

- Spata for stream-based CSV processing

- Yaml4s for YAML parsing and printing

- Zio-apache-parquet for typesafe processing of Parquet files

- Tranzactio for seamless integration between Doobie and ZIO

- Zio-lmdb for managing high-performance embedded key-value stores

By the end of the session, you will have a deeper understanding of how to leverage these hidden gems to enhance your Scala applications!
