This. The reason for Reason to exist was to be a bridge, bring native OCaml devs to web deployment and bring front end devs to native apps. It was a brilliant strategy I think. While the failure of the project certainly stems for the absence of development for more that two years, the ReScript project was the last nail the coffin because it stated that they wanted to blow up the bridge that was Reason's reason to exist. Why they thought the world needed yet another compile-to-javascript dialect when there's already typescript, dart, elm, and probably many others is beyond me.
