From how I understand this, ReasonML was/is the true OCaml derivative in JS world.

Whereas Rescript, which was called BuckleScript I think, took the nice pattern matching bits along with the type system from OCaml and married it into JS syntax.

That said, they’ve further tweaked the syntax from BuckleScript days presumably and removed support for JS classes.
