Diskuv OCaml

Über Diskuv OCaml

Diskuv OCaml ist eine aktuelle Windows-Anwendung aus dem WinGet-Community-Katalog. The Diskuv OCaml distribution is an open-source set of software that supports software development in pure OCaml. The distribution's strengths are its: ✓ full compatibility with OCaml standards like Opam, Dune and ocamlfind ✓ laser focus on "native" development (desktop software, mobile apps and embedded software) through support for the standard native compilers like Visual Studio and Xcode ✓ ease-of-use through simplified installers and simple productivity commands; high school students should be able to use it ✓ security through reproducibility, versioning and from-source builds The installation will take approximately 1.5 HOURS on a modern Windows PC. This version does not currently work if you have a space in your username (ex. C:\Users\Jane Smith). Installing this package will automatically install the required prerequisites for Windows development: * Visual Studio Build Tools 2019 (it will not touch any existing Visual Studio installation) * Git for Windows (if and only if your machine does not have it installed) These alternatives may be better depending on your use case: * Developing in a Javascript first environment? Have a look at Esy and Reason * Developing operating system kernels? Have a look at Mirage OS * Developing Linux server software like web servers? Plain old OCaml on Debian, etc. works well * Writing compilers or proofs? Plain old OCaml works really well * Wanting quick installations? Use anything but Diskuv OCaml! Diskuv OCaml will conduct from-source builds unless it can guarantee (and code sign) the binaries are reproducible. Today that means a lot of compiling. Commercial tools and support are available from Diskuv for mixed OCaml/C development; however, this pure OCaml winget package only has limited support for mixed OCaml/C. For example, the "ctypes" opam package has been patched to work with Visual Studio but is out-dated. Contact support AT diskuv.com if you need OCaml/C development.
