Last time I looked at reason it was totally new and there was no tooling etc. I got little support from the gitter or whatever it was.

Have things changed? It really interested me at the time.

Worth stopping by the discord [0], it's grown quite a bit and so has the (editor/build/etc.) tooling. There's no Apollo/Relay story yet (that's the biggest missing piece for me on the client side), but everything else is pretty decent!

It was a bit tough to get tooling set up and it doesn't work on Windows, but on Mac (and Linux I assume) it's amazing. Better Intellisense support in VSCode than Typescript!

It is very new though, and I haven't got a complete grip of JS FFI with Reason.

Hey a quick question — which Flow extension are you using? There's the official one called "Flow Language Support" and another one called vscode-flow-ide.

UPD: sorry, I just realized you were talking about Reason, never mind.
