  • Is there a modern IDE with good support for OCaml?
    2 projects | /r/ocaml | 17 Oct 2022
    I'd love to see something similar to Microsoft's Ionide project or for JetBrains to invest in IDE support.
  • Why OCaml?

    > Pretty good, https://ionide.io

    It pains me to admit it because I really like F# but, with due respect to the developers, Ionide and its related projects are the most unstable toolchain I've ever used.

    Spend half a day reloading the editor because the extension keeps hanging on non-trivial MSBuild only to discover that the formatter has truncated in half one of the files you worked on due to a soundness bug. (OCaml's editor support, in contrast, is quite stable.)

    Rider is the best editing experience I've had with F#, by far.

    The DarkLang project was originally written in OCaml and was recently ported to F# (https://blog.darklang.com/new-backend-fsharp/)

    > How much work would it take in term of code rewriting?

    There are definitely code changes required, but I think those are quite manageable as concepts mostly map 1:1 from OCaml to F#.

    > can it compile to native code?

    Yup, https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/deploying/nati...

    > how good is the language support experience in vscode?

    Pretty good, https://ionide.io

    (but I personally prefer JetBrains Rider)

    > any reason not to do it?

    Compilation speed, some OCaml language features?

  • How to get a non-broken F# development experience?
    4 projects | /r/fsharp | 5 Sep 2022
    I know it's a recurring topic but it's reaching a high level of pain *again* (see NET SDK 6.0.400 and 7.0.100 previews don't currently work with Ionide).
  • The Case for C# and .NET
    18 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 24 Jul 2022
    I don't disagree but it owes a lot of that to OCaml. That said, since we're talking about C#, F# and VS Code I'm gonna talk about a pet peeve I have. If you open a C# project in VS Code when the "Ionide" (basically the F# plugin for Code) is installed then Ionide thinks it's a F# project and will open some F# stuff after a few seconds (or prompt you to setup some F# stuff in its gitignore). The root cause has been identified (plugin activates when it sees a ".sln" file), a PR have been opened and rejected with no mention as to why (https://github.com/ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp/pull/1401) and the developers behind it are frustratingly non-communicative about it, closing issues about it (https://github.com/ionide/ionide-vscode-fsharp/issues/1701). Usual rules about OSS maintainers apply, they don't technically owe us users anything ... but man it feels like we're being trolled by now :D
  • Rust Is Hard, Or: The Misery of Mainstream Programming
    15 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 2 Jun 2022
    F# doesn't have a hard dependency on vscode. Resources from MS will obviously encourage using MS tooling, but ionide [1] is really good. The lsp+neovim workflow is not as good but getting better.

    Perf Avore was developed on VSCode using the ionide plugin and dotnet cli.
  • A few newbie questions
    2 projects | /r/fsharp | 18 Nov 2021
    I was on .Net 5 but same issue on 6. I tried the fix here- setting FSharp.dotnetRoot explicitly in settings.json and so far it seems better.

    Once we have our dependencies ready, we can start digging in with the code in VSCode using Ionide, Rider or Visual Studio.
