ReasonML November: International Blowout Edition! 🌍🦄

ReasonLDN returns with fantastic speakers from flying in from around the globe! 🦄💫🚀

Our theme this time is ReasonML meets OCaml! We'll have presentations illustrating how Reason can be wielded to make slick native applications, have a tour through the wonders of Dune, and sneak in one exceptional talk about terrific new ways to use ReasonML in your existing React applications.

This is definitely not one to miss!

🦄🔥 SPEAKERS🔥🦄

👌 Christiano Calcagno (@ccrisccris ) & Patrick Stapfer (@ryyppy) - FB and Reason Association
🚀“Don't mind the gap: Bringing Reason and Javascript closer together ”

A smooth interop with Javascript has been in Reason's DNA since the beginning, with its focus on gradual adoption. However, the interface between the two languages has also been the most delicate part to get right. genType tries to address this by enabling an idiomatic interface between the languages and convert automatically between their data representation.

With Typescript and Flow support, it is now possible to seal the interface and stop bugs from getting through. There's also special support for React, with automatic genration of wrappers between ReasonReact and ReactJS.

👌 Jérémie Dimino (@dimenix) - Jane Street
🚀“ Native Reason with Dune”
Dune is a staggeringly impressive tool to build native OCaml and Reason projects. Jérémie will tell us its history, show how it works in combination with esy, and talk about the future evolution of the tool.

👌 Anil Madhavapeddy (@avsm) - OCaml Labs
🚀“The OCaml Platform”
We keep being told ReasonML can compile to native and do interop with OCaml, and that there's a wealth of existing code and tools we can draw into our applications - but how do we get there?

Anil will walk us through the state of native development and introduce us to systems like opam, Duneiverse and other tools which will unlock the mysteries of native wonderlands!
