What is the status of ReasonML? My first experiences with ReasonML were very nice, because I found OCaml syntax confusing. I kinda left around the time ReScript got introduced. But OCaml syntax after a while isn't that bad, and in F# and Scala land I do miss the compile time speed of OCaml.

ReasonML purely as a syntax layer on top of OCaml is still being updated and released[1]. Incidentally, I'm one of the maintainers of that project too :-)

With this Melange release, we're hoping to somewhat revive ReasonML and channel some folks back to the community from the perspective of a vertically integrated platform[2] that has seen major investment in the past few years.

I'm glad to hear that! I had thought ReasonML was dead, because the blog hasn't been updated since 2018: https://reasonml.github.io/blog/

If you want to revitalize the project, please start updating the blog again :-)

Sorry if I am being pedantic but isn't it (confusingly) Reason (the new syntax) and not ReasonML (the organization) ?

With Melange ReasonML has a small comeback, since Melange and dune supports it out-of-the-box.

There has been a bit of activity on fixing bugs on refmt and polish the experience, no plans for big features so far but we will keep working on it.

We will update documentation from either reason-react and reason to highlight the integration with Melange soon.
