Re:How Jane Street accidentally built a better build system ... by edg-l on Friday January 31, 2025 @02:04PM (#42890572)
i want to like ocaml but the tooling is not there, coming from Rust.

The lsp requires you to run "dune build" first, bad already.

If you add a new file, the lsp wont pick it up until you dune build it again.

The compiler errors arent there too.

But i loved writing OCaml, its just thats a bit more painful to learn than due to the tooling, since i didn't use many functional langs before.
