ReasonConf 2019 OCaml Workshop

This repo contains exercises and build instructions to help you get started developing in OCaml.

Installing build tools and libraries

See README.org in install-ocaml for instructions.

Exercises

The exercises directory contains a number of exercises to get you started with OCaml. Each one has some expect-tests embedded in it. The workflow is:

cd 02-exercises/$problem_dir

dune runtest # builds and runs inline tests
# Look at test output and compiler errors, edit problem.ml, rerun:
dune runtest

Github

Now you’re done with the exercises, dive into monads and implement a part of GitHub’s own hub CLI, using the github library from MirageOS.

See the github README to get started!

Frogger

Now you will implement a simplified clone of the classic arcade game Frogger.

See the frogger README to get started!
