AFAIU, ReScript is a new language that offers an alternative to TypeScript.
Melange approaches the problem from the perspective of compatibility with OCaml / ReasonML. We've focused very hard on vertical integration with the OCaml Platform[1] and we're getting all the benefits with this release!
That said, both communities are fairly small, and I don't doubt that somewhat competing projects have some impact on community. From our perspective (the Melange team), our goals fit a specific use case, and e.g. Ahrefs, one of the leading SEO engines in the world, is using Melange[2] in production to power all their web experiences.
