Years ago when I was around 14, I stumbled upon Chris's Katahdin project and thought it was such a cool idea I had to try it out. I spent quite a bit of time trying to get set up with it, and not knowing much about C# couldn't rea

Just to clarify to people not familiar with the two languages and their differences, this is somewhere where the two languages diverge greatly. OCaml does not have an "obj" type that we can cast to (and in general casts are quite

While the object system is pretty rarely used [1], polymorphic variants see quite a bit of use and are also based on row types. [1] Recently have been seeing a lot more use in BuckleScript because of the JS object representation

Not entirely. For now Flutter is focused mainly on mobile apps whereas Revery is focused primarily on desktop apps (though we do plan to tackle mobile apps eventually and Google is sort of moving in the direction of targeting desktop in Flu

Looks like this is using Fluid rather than Revery. Not sure about memory usage in Revery but I think it should be lower than that. Definitely something I'll look into

Unfortunately, we aren't compiling pure React code to native -- for something like that Electron is probably the go-to solution for now. However, the reverse is true. Revery apps can be compiled into a web app without you needing to do

Sorry this just hasn't been updated in a few weeks. I just opened a PR to update the README to clarify that. We actually have all of those done right now. Here's a gif of radio buttons in action from a pull request [1]. [1] https

To be fair, issues with bindings have really not been too common and when they appear the fix is just opting out of the strong type checking. 9 times out of 10 when we have a bug the issue is actually something not specific to Reason, like

For me, Reason's type system seems a lot more focused on what it's trying to do. It's much more minimal than TypeScript's, so you don't end up trying to hack it to fit weird JS types. This also means you get full ty

I know this is getting downvoted a ton, but I certainly felt the same way before using Reason. Even now, I'm sort of undecided about my opinion on it. I love how accessible it makes OCaml (which I think it does, people pay more attenti

Even then, I feel like working with Floats vs. Ints in a web browser is almost never an issue. I'd just open Float if I need it because I can't think of any scenario where I'd use both in one module

Like a ton of other people here, we've been using ReasonML for about half a year now at Rolltrax [1] and so far I can say I'm ~95% happy with it. I'm a long-time OCaml user but my co-founder had 0 experience in OCaml when we
