ocaml

I'm really tempted to use the Forester notes approach to writing my thesis. It is a very interesting approach to scientific writing, where (as I understood it) atomic ideas are described separate files that can be linked but also arranged into longer documents.

The original is written in #OCaml with quite involved setup, but #TIL about two single-executable #Rust implementations: Kodama and Weibian.

I'm still trying them out, but luckily both support @typst so at least I can keep a common content format between them and final document

Is there an #OCaml community on the Fediverse?

I dipped my toes into the language 6-ish years ago and I'm revisiting it now. The curve then was pretty steep, but now going through the initial tutorial there are only a few giant leaps required.

I can't tell if a) I'm unearthing internalized but lost understanding, b) I've grown used to the concepts through other languages in the meantime or c) the info got better.
