  1. reason

    Simple, fast & type safe code that leverages the JavaScript & OCaml ecosystems

    https://ocaml.org/docs/toplevel-introduction#loading-librari...

    https://reasonml.github.io/ looks cool, OCaml with javascript.

  3. llvm-project

    The LLVM Project is a collection of modular and reusable compiler and toolchain technologies.

    so simple huh? since you fancy yourself an architect can you let me know how we might fix the architecture of https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project such that CMake is no longer needed?

  4. rescript

    ReScript is a robustly typed language that compiles to efficient and human-readable JavaScript.

  5. hazel

    Hazel, a live functional programming environment with typed holes (by hazelgrove)

    you can, for now at least, still use reasonML with js_of_ocaml to compile to javascript if you like reason syntax but don't want to a more complicated relationship with the ocaml ecosystem (we use this for https://hazel.org)

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
