<darklambda>
i guess for book recommendation it's also the same
<darklambda>
some recommend real world ocaml
<discocaml>
<deepspacejohn> RWO is a good book, but personally I'd say it's more intermediate level.
<darklambda>
any concepts that are prerequisite to it? i've done haskell and f# previously
<discocaml>
<deepspacejohn> RWO is based around using an alternative stdlib, which works differently than the built-in stdlib. it also focuses a lot on using PPXes and other tools that may be more complicated than a vanilla setup.
<darklambda>
oh
<darklambda>
i'm currently using a combo of opam, ocaml, and dune
<darklambda>
then, utop for repl stuff
<discocaml>
<deepspacejohn> So trying to learn from it while also trying to learn from other sources may be confusing. But with that being said, the book's content itself is quite good quality once you're used to the libraries it uses
<darklambda>
btw, i notice this discocaml thingy... i assume this is just a bridge from irc to discord?
<discocaml>
<deepspacejohn> yep, a bridge to Discord.
<darklambda>
is there an link to discord for this ocaml community?
<darklambda>
thanks for the links... have to wait 10mins before i can post on #general channel :-)
<darklambda>
btw, any music live coding platform that uses ocaml? (looking for more motivation and fun while learning it.. )

<darrenldl> what's a music live coding platform?
<discocaml>
<darrenldl> like the ones seen in racket?

<astreamingcomesacrossthesky> Or like overtone in Clojure, Haskell has one the name of which escapes me
<discocaml>
<astreamingcomesacrossthesky> I assume that's what they mean at least
