| I was wondering about the practical differences between BuckleScript and js_of_ocaml. Found this brief explanation in the docs[0]: > Js_of_ocaml takes lowlevel bytecode from OCaml compiler, BuckleScript takes the highlevel rawlambda representation from OCaml compiler I presume that means different (higher-level) optimisations are available in BuckleScript? > Js_of_ocaml focuses more on existing OCaml eco-system(opam) while BuckleScript’s major goal is to target npm Now that is a good idea—npm is a fairly large ecosystem that people are already familiar with. If you haven’t already, you might look into using existing TypeScript interface files to get type information for npm libraries. > Js_of_ocaml and BuckleScript have slightly different runtime encoding in several places, for example, BuckleScript encodes OCaml Array as JS Array while js_of_ocaml requires its index 0 to be of value 0. Would it ever be feasible to support interop with js_of_ocaml? [0]: http://bloomberg.github.io/bucklescript/Manual.html#_compari... |
