Yep, agreed again. I'll invest the proper amount of hours to not only nail an automated project bootstrapping with esy which I'll then proceed to script with bash/zsh. I'll also exercise a few paths like adding an external dependency, splitting the project to a library and binary, being able to use a REPL (`utop` I think?) in the project, etc.
After that's done I'll also document the entire thing. At that point that might make a good candidate for a blog post to enrich the OCaml ecosystem, too.
Only after that point can I play casually with it, that's true. There's always an initial ramp-up price that has to be paid and in my case that price was higher than I wanted. I'm still willing to go through it all because I absolutely love what OCaml is in every way that I've been exposed to so far (with the exception of build tooling as already said).
While I am going through this I can indeed make use of Docker images and see what they do that I failed to do before. Could be very illuminating.
