Notes: github.com/rescript-lang/res…
Huge thanks to everyone who helped move ReScript forward.

A simple, solid type system that doesn't get confused while you refactor your code. Change the right field in the right record, and leave the superficially similar ones alone!
Works across files too.

Ah, the power of having proper language constructs to handle return values and exceptions in both sync and async manner without the need of let variables and try/catches.
Just another day in ReScript 😎
Did you know that in ReScript you can pattern match directly on `await`, and that you can handle exceptions in the same switch?
Can't be overstated what a productivity multiplier this is given how cumbersome error handling in async/await can be.
Also, notice `Ok()` and `Error()`. ReScript has a result type built right into the language that's always in scope. So communicating success/error is simple and accessible to anyone.

This is going to be our first in-person event since 2019, when COVID shut down any bigger initiatives (the last one was ReasonConf 19 / USA).
This time it's going to be a retreat instead of a conference to tighten the collaboration effort between individual members!
@rescriptlang OSS core contributors rejoice!
The ReScript Association invited 13 contributors to the ReScript Retreat in Vienna from May 23-26, 2024 to work together on important topics in the ReScript compiler, toolchain and ecosystem.
More details will follow soon.

Diffing clean, readable JavaScript output means that you can make giant ReScript changes with a high confidence rate of having introduced no migration bug.
This is the technique we’ve used internally to migrate high six digits number of lines too.

Our ReScript Retreat started out with an amazing intro talk about our syntax parser and printer implementation by our syntax connoisseur @_binary_search himself.
Time to turn "let" into "var" amiright?

More importantly, our compilation saves intermediate artifacts as checkpoints! This means:
- If your compilation gets shut down halfway, we pick up from where we left. No staleness or weird state
- We don't ever run out of memory during compilation

Minor mention correction: @rescriptlang and @evanwallace
Sorry, random Indian guy and Italian company!
Thanks to recent improvement from @rescript and @esbuild, we are able to emit very clean bundled code. It's the combination of fastest compiler/build/bundler in JS ecosystem.

Relay looks beautiful in ReScript. Holy moly.
One of my favorite things in Relay is that even an as mundane thing as a link can have data dependencies. The component here links to "data sources". Whoever wants to use this doesn't need to care about _what_ data the link needs from each data source. Just drop it in there.

JS object as argument everywhere would wreck perf bc of allocations, plus all the runtime unpredictability. Here's a simple calculation: nitter.app/batmansmk/status/13632…
So yeah, use labeled arguments! And do worry about perf. Disregard of perf is how we lower our capability ceiling.
100,000 / s == 2,000 / frame.
Just enough to sort() an array [] with 50 elements.
If you have 100 components in React, thats gonna be about 2,000 function calls as well.
