I'm excited to see a modern GCed language that is targetting WASM. Closest comparison is probably Grain (https://grain-lang.org/).

Apparently the Grain compiler is written in ReasonML rather than plain OCaml. Isn't it a bit comedic how readily these niche things are stacked up?

    OCaml syntax is quite annoying ... everything is backwards and it even uses double semicolons! :-)

    Why? A language's implementation language doesn't affect me much. And isn't reason just a syntax layer on ocaml? The tooling can convert back and forth and the runtime semantics are the same. I can read reason code fine if I need to, but I don't.
