It’s more about the configuration than the compilation speed. Probably caused by many totally different projects, I have no idea about the best way to set these up. tsc vs tsc --build? Using the...

I use rewatch with a ReScript 11 monorepo for some time already and in the context of a monorepo it’s a game changer! A couple of seconds + less than 512MB RAM (haven’t tried to push lower) to...

Some people here might still remember me from the early days of ReScript. Although I no longer maintain ReScript, the years I spent building its compiler, type system, and toolchain had an enormous...

Welcome back, Bob! Happy to see the lessons learned from ReScript are heavily applied to MoonBit. I was a little sad to see that it requires parameter annotations but I guess you can move faster with...

Welcome back, Bob! So, if we want to bring the ReScript IDE experience up to the same level as MoonBit’s, what directions should we focus on and what specific work should we do?

I did not work on Rescript for very long time, it would be nice to get some funding to sponsor some expert working on it.

Quite excited for this! I gave the standalone rewatch package another try, a clean build was just about a 100% speed improvement over v11.1.4! Unfortunately I can’t quite start using it for real yet,...

What do you mean? Dev dependencies should now work as intended with rewatch, what version of Rescript do you use?

Can you share a vite.config example to ignore this? Would be great to include in GitHub - rescript-lang/create-rescript-app: npm create rescript-app@latest
