Happy holidays from all of us! github.com/rescript-lan...

ReScript 12 is here! A major step toward a leaner, faster, simpler toolchain. This release refines the language and embraces ReScript’s own identity. Blog: rescript-lang.org/blog/release... Notes: github.com/rescript-lan... Huge thanks to everyone who helped move ReScript forward.

ReScript 12 RC5 is out. Hopefully the last RC before stable. Go try it: github.com/rescript-lan...

Xote v1.2.0 has been released with JSX support and other minor changes: github.com/brnrdog/xote... #rescript #signals #reactivity

I was on the latest episode of @deadcode.website to talk about @rescript-lang.org! If you've heard the name and wondered what's going on with it in 2025, give the episode a listen! shows.acast.com/dead-code/ep...

For anyone interested, I've been working on a new UI library for @rescript-lang.org based on the TC39 Signals proposal: github.com/brnrdog/xote #rescript #signals #ui

In the next version of our vscode plugin 🚀: github.com/rescript-lan...

So this crab jumped into our build system and things got out of hand. End result: a brand new, super fast ReScript build system. rescript-lang.org/blog/reforgi...

Been building a @rescript-lang.org MCP server lately, letting an LLM truly see a codebase. If you haven’t met ReScript before, this one’s still worth watching . It has a clear case of how localized MCP servers can lift developer tooling. youtube.com/watch?v=stIX... #rescript #mcp

Thanks everyone who tried out our previous release candidate, your feedback has been super helpful. We’ve published another one: github.com/rescript-lan... Give it a spin and let us know what you think!

ReScript doesn’t have a Discord or any real-time chat. We keep all discussions on our forum: forum.rescript-lang.org How do you feel about that? Do you prefer thoughtful async discussions or do you miss live chat spaces like Discord?

ReScript 12.0.0 RC2 is out. Give it a spin and share feedback before the final release. github.com/rescript-lan...

Latest @rescript-lang.org beta slaps hard! github.com/rescript-lan...

Help us test our new build system which comes enabled by default with the first ReScript v12 beta. npm create rescript-app@next forum.rescript-lang.org/t/ann-rescri...

A solid demo of how ReScript integrates seamlessly with popular JS tools!

Next up we have a talk about the new build system, Rewatch by Jaap Frolich.

Good morning! We are currently kicking off this year's ReScript Retreat with a talk about editor tooling by @z-th.bsky.social and @nojaf.com.

Amazing work by @hyeseong.kim !

I wrote a blog post about using the React compiler with #rescript. You can check it out here: blog.nojaf.com/2025/03/23/r.... Things are going smoothly so far!

We just landed a new (experimental) feature for v12 - nested record definitions! Records is a corner stone in ReScript. However, they can't be nested without explicit definitions. Until now! Will be especially useful for deeply nested records (like options objects) not intended to be reused.

We are happy to announce that there will be another "ReScript Retreat" in 2025, once again in Vienna, Austria. Check out this new blogpost to get an idea what we did last year. rescript-lang.org/blog/retreats

Looks like a massive perf improvement could land on the playground! Great job @hyeseong.kim !

Go read this amazing blog post from @vlkpack.com to learn more about all the tools that work great with #rescript!

@z-th.bsky.social has made an amazing job introducing #ReScript, go watch this deeply interesting video!

Perfect when you want to experiment with some #rescript code right in the browser!

Records are powerful, but you need explicit definitions for them. We're experimenting with allowing inline record definitions nested inside a record type definition. This will make some of the common use cases for records more ergonomic.

The new dot completion also works for objects. Objects are structurally typed, doesn't need a type definition, and are quite useful in some scenarios. Completion for object fields will be more ergonomic and get better discoverability with this addition.

With the new dot completion enhancements in our editor tooling you'll now get completions from the Option module when autocompleting on a record field that's an optional value, instead of just no completions like before.

Happy new year! We're almost ready to release an exciting editor feature - dot completion everywhere! "." will now trigger completions for more than just record fields. Example: you'll get completions for pipeable functions from the module of that type. Examples and videos ⬇️

I've been playing around with @rescript-lang.org for a React project I'm working on and I'm super impressed with how far it's come since I last checked it out! Also between ReScript and @gleam.run I'm absolutely spoiled when it comes to error messages

Type inference is simple but powerful. The compiler will infer each type that's unknown by usage. A consequence of this is that prop drilling is really simple, because you rarely have to annotate props. Just using the prop in the component defining it is usually enough.

In ReScript, pipes are normally used for chaining fn calls instead of method chaining with dots like in JS. This is a common gotcha for JS/TS devs who come to ReScript. To ease the transition we're experimenting with letting the editor tooling complete pipes also via dots.

In ReScript you can put expressions almost anywhere. Assign expressions to variables, put them anywhere in JSX, put them directly into function arguments, etc. Massive readability and productivity boosters, and you'll love it if you haven't written in a language with it before.

Did a quick stream on my WebAPI #ReScript progress: www.youtube.com/live/MC-dbM-...

Since v11, ReScript has support for explicit partial application of functions using the "..." syntax at the end of the function call. Partial application of functions is useful in many scenarios, and this explicit syntax makes code easier to read and reason about.

Pipes are one of the most powerful concepts in ReScript. Pipes let you build function chains easily, with great support for type inference, and great editor support like autocomplete. It's just a syntax transform, so it compiles to regular, efficient JS function calls.

ReScript has first class support for tagged template literals since v11.1. A useful JS technique that's important for interop, and lends itself well to some pretty interesting use cases!

Dynamic imports shipped in ReScript v11. You can easily import both entire file modules, as well as single functions. For file modules, you simply await the module itself. For single functions, you use the `import` function. Makes things like React.lazy easy to use.

Good documentation fosters great collaboration. I really hope my latest #ReScript adventure takes off: rescript-lang.github.io/experimental...

JSX is a 1st class language feature in ReScript. Since v11.1 you've been able to use any createElement-style JSX transform you'd like with ReScript. Image shows Preact, but there are examples in the community even for non-client side fws, like emitting plain HTML server side.

ReScript ships with native async/await support that also compiles to async/await in JavaScript. You can pattern match directly on the await, and handle errors in the pattern match as well. No need to wrap things manually in try/catch, the compiler still emits the right thing.

We shipped a %todo extension point in v11.1. It makes it easy to postpone implementing something but not have the compiler block you continuing working. It'll produce a warning by default, and it's easy to configure the compiler so that it emits a hard error in for example CI.

In v12 we're hoping to ship Rewatch, ReScript's new build system, made by Jaap and Roland. Below is compiling a 375k LoC repo using the current build system vs Rewatch. 1. Current build system: 33.8s 2. Rewatch: 12.27s Speedup by a factor of 2.75 (!) in this example.

We'll ship our new standard library Core by default in v12. Core replaces the current standard lib and most of Belt, with one unified experienced that's built to look and feel more like the JavaScript APIs you're used to, while not sacrificing ergonomics.

We're further closing the syntax gap between ReScript and JavaScript in in v12: - First class regex syntax (previously needed wrapping in %re("<pattern>")) - Remainder operator - Use +, -, / and * for any number type, dedicated operators per type not needed And more coming!
