Not to demotivate anyone / anything, but this sounds like the least useful parts of both worlds; programming JS (and having to deal with typing and correctness with other tools) to run on the OCaml runtime (which as noted, is really only better on a small subset of devices).

On the other hand, cool to see the investment in OCaml, and such a popular language able to run on its runtime! I hope that with all this newfound interest from the industry and the community more OCaml resources and more development in the compiler start to happen!

But how else is Facebook going to cross the extra mile to get on your baby monitor and keep track of truly everything you do?
