Installing Scala on Windows

Scala can be installed on Windows using Coursier tool. It’s basically a command line tool which opens up when you click on the scala installer exe. Follow these steps to install scala on Windows.

Download and Install Scala

• Download the .zip file and open it.
• Run the cs-x86_64-pc-win32.exe file.
• A Command Prompt window will open. When prompted, press Y to proceed.

Set Up Environment Variables

The installation might not automatically set `SCALA_HOME` and add the `\bin` folder to your PATH. This setup is necessary for Scala to work properly.

After the installation, you need to manually add SCALA_HOME and SCALA_HOME\data\bin to your system’s PATH.

Note: Scala’s bin should be in the path. Else, you won’t be able to run it from command prompt.
