Does anyone have any experience using JavaFlow with Scala? Any reason
it wouldn't work?

I haven't used JavaFlow with or without Scala, but it's a framework for doing continuations in Java.

I've seen some implementations of continuations in Scala though:

I use JavaFlow with Scala in production, and so far it has worked out fine.
Besides JavaFlow, I also experimented with Kilim and RIFE continuations.
Kilim looked promising but was not yet suitable for my purposes. RIFE
continuations appeared to be too limited for most use cases (including
mine).

Cheers,
Peter
