Now that Dotty is apparently getting ready to compile larger projects, I wonder if there is a simple way to use it as drop-in replacement for Scalac in sbt projects? Like if I had the following build.sbt:
name := "Foo"
scalaVersion := "2.11.7"
Are there some steps I can take to swap out Scalac for Dotc here?

sbt shell has a command prompt (with tab completion and history!). To compile again, press up arrow and then enter. To run your program, type run . To leave sbt shell, type exit or use Ctrl+D (Unix) or Ctrl+Z (Windows).
The dist task builds a binary version of your application that you can deploy to a server without any dependency on sbt, the only thing the server needs is a Java installation. This produces a ZIP file containing all JAR files needed to run your application in the target/universal folder of your application.
The project folder contains sbt configurations and settings, while src contains all your source code. sbt creates the target folder after you compile your code; it includes the JVM bytecode of your application.
We've merged #2344 Make sbt aware of Dotty feature contributed by Guillaume Martres, and it will be part of 0.13.10. In the meantime you can try it with the nightly published to https://repo.scala-sbt.org/scalasbt/ivy-snapshots/.
