I am glad you have something to compare.
All I do is ReScript at work and I despise working on legacy TS stuff.

Glad you have fun working on the docs!

That's totally fine. Especially in fast-moving agentic coding times we all need a good break every once in a while.

Don't be sorry for not keeping up. If I did not do it partially as a job, I could not sustain this either.

We’re pretty close to having an initial Rust port of React Compiler. My approach was to iterate on the plan document (write it manually, have the agent expand, edit, repeat). Then try to run it, see what goes wrong, revert back to the plan, tweak the plan, repeat.

And if you do, check out Sury (github.com/DZakh/sury) and serde_derive (github.com/alex35mil/se...)

GitHub - brnrdog/zekr: A simple, minimal and easy to use test framework for ReScript A simple, minimal and easy to use test framework for ReScript - brnrdog/zekr

I decided to extract a test framework I've been using across my #rescript projects into its own package.

Zekr is a very simple and minimal test framework, but easy to use. Let me know what you think if you try it out: github.com/brnrdog/zekr

Releases · brnrdog/rescript-signals Lightweight, zero-dependency, signals primitives implemented in ReScript for fine-grained reactivity. - brnrdog/rescript-signals

For those interested, I released two new versions of rescript-signals with a bunch of performance improvements and a benchmark script:

github.com/brnrdog/resc...

#rescript #signals

The embed-lang approach I linked above has the huge advantage that code-generators can be implemented in any language, not just OCaml.

We won't remove ppx support anytime soon though, there are still many rescript-specific ppxes out there which we would not want to break like the built-in react ppx, ppx-spice, sury (aka rescript-schema), etc.

For at least some applications of ppx.

Totally agree!

Announcing ReScript 12 | ReScript Blog ReScript 12 arrives with a redesigned build toolchain, a modular runtime, and a wave of ergonomic language features.

ReScript 12 is here!

A major step toward a leaner, faster, simpler toolchain.

This release refines the language and embraces ReScript’s own identity.

Notes: github.com/rescript-lan...

Huge thanks to everyone who helped move ReScript forward.

Wooohooo!

I am still taking my time with Act 2, I try to explore everything. So many optional areas and bosses.
