Why are the bindings for most libraries outdated?
Plugging my own things here, but check out these two for working with databases: pgtyped-rescript/RESCRIPT.md at rescript · zth/pgtyped-rescript · GitHub GitHub - zth/rescript-edgedb: Use EdgeDB fully...

Keeping up with JS libraries APIs is a very thankless task. Most companies use a certain version of e.g. NextJS and when it’s good enough already, they don’t change anything. I myself maintain...

I see it’s not a rewarding task. But creating bindings are not easy for beginners. I am getting to know how to write half baked bindings after 2 weeks. Lack of sufficient tutorials is one big reason....

Hi, Are there any ongoing initiatives for generating bindings with AI? I can’t find what is showcased in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MzqLLLI8ts&t=3599s Nor does...

Could I do something clever to merge tuples? For example: ReScript Documentation ReScript Playground Try ReScript in the browser I have two values, and I want to create a new combined tuple value from...

you’re trying to create some kind of heterogeneous list, right? What problem are you trying to solve with this data structure?

Yes, I believe so. Right now, in my bindings I invoke an external function that returns: type queryResult<'documentdata> = ( option<Firebase.Firestore.querySnapshot<'documentdata>>,...

you likely know at compile time the types of the results you’re going to get, so depending on how you can to consume the results, you have multiple choices. create a record: type okResults = { a?:...

It really depends on the component. In some components, I have a single query, while in others, I have eight queries. Sometimes all the queries share the same generic type; other times, they do not....
View ArticleMerge tuples types
at some point, you have to consume these results, so you have to know the dimension of your tuple and its inner types. What is the problem here? Is it about having tuples of dynamic size (which you...

Hmm, if combine8 needs to call all the other combineX functions that doesn’t seem so beneficial. Is there any reflection possible to merge 'a and 'b if they are tuples? Or maybe even some inline...

Would need to be tested, but I think this variadic JS function would work as an implementation. It’s not exactly pretty. const combineImpl = (...results) => { let result; for (const [data, loading,...

The issue is not really about merging the tuples but about keeping the type information, right?

And if it’s about writing those cumbersome combine functions, well, you’re going to write those only once and use it many times, so it’s likely worth it!

Yes, I have different pages in my application. Each react component linked to a page does a different set of queries (so multiple queryResults). And I want to show a spinner when something is loading,...

Type variables are scoped to the top level definition, so by naming it you are forcing it to take on a single type for each invocation of the top level function. Part of your confusion might also stem...

To clarify, my point was simply that, putting that JS function (or something like it) in a file, you could then bind to it for all of your combine functions without having to do the runtime busywork...
