Hello! Today I'm releasing a project on which I've been working, that is in an early stage of development, into the open source world. It is integration and bindings to Godot (currently just 4.2) from a new language: OCaml. It is called Godotcaml. Details below! Why Godot? There are many reasons to choose Godot, but the reason I'll focus on is that it provides a full game-development IDE from whic
GitHub - panglesd/slipshow: An engine for displaying slips, the next-gen version of slides
Slipshow is a tool specifically designed for technical presentations where traditional slides are not enough. In a slipshow presentation, the equivalent of a slide is called a slip. Each slip is like a slide, but with no bottom limit. That is, the content can be arbitrarily long! During the presentation, the camera will "scroll" down to reveal the hidden content, following a script given by the pr
Melange 4.0 is here | Sandtracks
Today, we're introducing Melange 4.0, the latest version of our backend for the OCaml compiler that emits JavaScript. Melange is now compatible with OCaml 5.2! In this release, Melange starts emitting more ES6 constructs, supports more JavaScript builtins, improves error handling, and makes using Dune virtual libraries fully supported. Read on for more details. Embracing OCaml 5.2 OCaml 5.2 was r
Getting OCaml Through the Eye of a Needle
I think OCaml is a great language. While it’s always too simplistic to put languages on a straight line, I feel it’s alright to say that it’s somewhere in between Java/C#/Go and Rust/Haskell for a couple of reasons: Immutability is the default, but you can use types that are mutable if you need/want to You can throw exceptions if you want, or play it “safe” with a Result type Concurrency can be ha
7 OCaml Gotchas
I've been writing OCaml for about 1 year (check my previous post 8 months of OCaml after 8 years of Haskell). I enjoy OCaml. But as any other programming language, OCaml has its quirks. That's fine, you can enjoy imperfect things too. But it could be useful to learn about potential surprising behaviours. In this blog post, I'm highlighting 7 OCaml gotchas. Some of them might be obvious to experien
Eio 1.0 Release: Introducing a new Effects-Based I/O Library for OCaml
Eio 1.0 Release: Introducing a new Effects-Based I/O Library for OCamlby Isabella Leandersson, Thomas Leonard, and Anil Madhavapeddy on Mar 20th, 2024 The OCaml 5 update brought much-anticipated support for programming on multiple cores. It also introduced support for concurrency via effect handlers – one of the first mainstream languages to do so. This significant update has had profound performa
8 months of OCaml after 8 years of Haskell in production
I've been using Haskell in production for 8 years. I've been using OCaml in production for 8 months. It's time to compare those two languages. Syntax Haskell probably has the most elegant syntax across all languages I've seen (maybe Idris is better because dependently typed code can become ugly in Haskell really quickly). There's utter joy in expressing your ideas by typing as few characters as po
MacoCaml: Staging Composable and Compilable Macros
209 MacoCaml: Staging Composable and Compilable Macros NINGNING XIE, University of Toronto, Canada LEO WHITE, Jane Street Capital, UK OLIVIER NICOLE, Tarides, France JEREMY YALLOP, University of Cambridge, UK We introduce MacoCaml, a new design and implementation of compile-time code generation for the OCaml language. MacoCaml features a novel combination of macros with phase separation and quotat
Improving the dead code elimination algorithm in js_of_ocaml - Micah Cantor
I'm looking for a full-time software engineering position starting in January 2024. If you or your team is hiring, please reach out! Introduction This summer I worked as a software engineer intern at Tarides from their Paris office. My project centered on improving the dead code elimination algorithm in the OCaml to JavaScript compiler, js_of_ocaml. In this post, I'll give some background on why t
Playing with Caml Light on DOS | Frederic Cambus
OCaml has been on my radar for some years now, and I think it was MirageOS which sparked my interest in the language. Lately, I started reading more about OCaml and its ecosystem, and indulged myself in an historical detour. For more background information on Caml and the Caml Light implementation in particular, please refer to "A History of Caml". Distribution archives for Caml Light are availabl
What the interns have wrought, 2023 edition
We’re once again at the end of our internship season, and it’s my task to provide a few highlights of what the dev interns accomplished while they were here. The program was big! We had 152 software engineering interns, drawn from 58 schools across 19 different countries. And that’s not even counting the 31 tech interns in areas like production engineering, IT engineering, network engineering, and
