Reason Website & Documentation

Contribute

All pages are in src/pages/. The markdown files under src/pages/guide and src/pages/community are probably of most interest.

Building

yarn install
npm run develop

That'll start a hot-loading server & you can make changes & see the results.

If you have push access, to deploy a new version of the site, go to the source branch and do:

npm run deploy

Note: the deployment is currently broken because of gatsby because of webpack because of chunking plugin, because that's life. We've currently cherry-picked the relevant changes into a stable branch called new-deploy. Deploy through that one.

The site uses GatsbyJS. For info on how it works, take a look at their docs.

Building the Playground

The playground uses a bundled JS version of Reason's refmt, BuckleScript compiler, its standard library, etc.

To build the bundled standard library: Please read the documentation in regenerateStdlibForBrowser.js.

To build refmt and bs: make sure you've got closure compiler, OPAM, js_of_ocaml, reason, menhirLib and ocaml-migrate-parsetree installed, then invoke black magic at https://github.com/jaredly/bs-refmt-jsoo.

Then run the following on refmt.js and all:

java -jar closure.jar --create_source_map bundle.js.map --language_in ECMASCRIPT6 --compilation_level SIMPLE refmt.js > refmt-closure.js

Then rename it back to refmt.js.

Then cry a little and submit a PR to make the process better.
