OP here. I don't mean this to be negative, this is just my ongoing developer blog to keep the Dark community appraised about what's going on.
There's some really great stuff about OCaml. I don't think we could have gotten through the first 2 years without OCaml, we repeatedly made very large scale changes to what our product was and how it worked, and that would have been 10x harder in something else.
I actually think OCaml stands to be in a great place in the next few years with the work being done by core community members. See https://twitter.com/patricoferris/status/1323330884515356672 https://twitter.com/patricoferris/status/1323330884515356672.
- justatdotin 6y agothanks for sharing, I find this really informative.
- mholub 6y agoso if you already had experience with Rust/etc, why did you decide to choose OCaml? Also why not to choose F#/Mono (and now .NET core) for example?
- pbiggar 6y agoI wouldn't say I had experience with Rust, tbh (1 day in 2010 doesn't count!) I don't remember considering F#, so probably just never occurred to me.
