reflex
Interactive programs without callbacks or side-effects. Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) uses composable events and time-varying values to describe interactive systems as pure functions. Just like other pure functional code, functional reactive code is easier to get right on the first try, maintain, and reuse. (by reflex-frp)

My first experience with OCaml
I started with the official documentation, which was enough to get an overview of the language and its type model, install the development tools and compile a small "hello world" application. However as I dove deeper I discovered other resources as well, such as Real World OCaml, OCamlverse, OCaml Operators where I could find the information I couldn't find on the official page.

Internet Archive forced to remove 500k books after publishers' court win
> This is book communism and fails for the same reasons as regular communism. It is in nobody’s interest to do any hard work. If you don’t reward great effort, virtually nobody provides it.
Counterpoint that is decidedly not motivated by communism:

There are many books like it, comprehensive, written with great effort, and free for anyone to read.

Nix-Powered Development with OCaml
I don't think they're wrong
the Jane Street side are quite prolific with blog posts etc
as a newcomer to OCaml one of the first, and nicer-looking, intro resources you'll likely encounter is the Real World OCaml book https://dev.realworldocaml.org/ which unfortunately does everything using Base instead of the stdlib
Personally that didn't sit right to me and I prefer to use the stdlib by default (which seems fine and not in need of a wholesale replacement)

Comparing Objective Caml and Standard ML
This is an oldie but a goodie.
OCaml has, unlike Standard ML, grown quite a lot since this page was made.
In particular, the section "Standard libraries", I'd recommend looking at:
https://dev.realworldocaml.org/
A couple of places where the comparison is outdated:
- OCaml using Base [1] allows for result-type oriented programming
- OCaml using Base uses less language magic and more module system
While there was and is truth to the distinction that SML is for scientists and OCaml is for engineers, this dichotomy is getting dated: OCaml is under active development, which means that scientists who want better tooling will choose OCaml. For example, 1ML [2] by Andreas Rossberg was built in OCaml.

Resource recommendations for a beginner.
Real World OCaml (version 2 is finally out) is also pretty good.

OCAML HELP!
Real World OCaml is also a good resource, geared more towards people who already have some programming experience and want a more industry/practical focused learning experience.
-
Teach Yourself Programming in Ten Years
ocaml.org’s new website is packed with lots of great early intros.
most learners eventually gravitate towards Real World OCaml https://dev.realworldocaml.org/ for additional learning.
Unfortunately, the learning resources for different domains out there isn’t as highly curated or prolific as, say, rust. If you do web dev like me, it takes a bit more work to find the tools and put them together. But the language itself lends itself well to systems level programming.
Fortunately, the forum is a great help.
