OCaml has its sights set on your browser, and this week I'm joined by one of the core architects of that full-stack future, Antonio Monteiro. So what can #OCaml, #Melange & #ReasonML do for you, and how exactly are they built? Let's find out... youtu.be/vSSpbAI_-t0

There are a few seats left for the OCaml workshop. Learning functional programming by getting deep into OCaml is a great opportunity to grow (as a frontend and as engineer!) I learned everything I know from Javier Chávarri and he's awesome

It took us a while, but we have finally switched to esbuild to bundle all frontend code Ahrefs. The JS bundling time went down from 145s to 7s, a ~20x speedup. Feeling so grateful, doing OCaml all day while still having access to the amazing JavaScript tooling ecosystem.

Had a great pleasure hosting Javier Chávarri and David Sancho today at Bloomberg during our OCaml knowledge sharing sessions! 🔥🐫 I learned a lot about Melange from experts, and I really enjoyed it. FYI, if you want to present something OCaml-related for our OCaml community at

We should talk more about melange-json. It's the successor of decco but 10x better - generates json decoders/encoders for types - written manually or automatically (with the ppx!) - works in native (yojson) - supports custom decoders/encoders - and handle more types than decco
