Support for Scala programming language

#1

Hi all!
Thanks to an amazing work of a bunch of individuals in the Scala community, https://www.scala-lang.org/ has now a language server (https://scalameta.org/metals/), VS Code has a plugin for Metals (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=scalameta.metals).

Could Theia support Scala? :slight_smile:

Definitely! We are transitioning from using the LSP to directly running full VS Code extensions. Not sure someone has tried the scalameta.metals extension already.
