And I&amp;#x27;ve been hoping that some of this confusion would get cleared up.&lt;p&gt;Unfortunately, after reading this blog post I think I&amp;#x27;m even more confused than I was before. Are Reason and Rescript separate projects? It seems like there are now _three_ different syntax options: OCaml, Reason, and ReScript? Even if it&amp;#x27;s a good change in the long run, the lack of clarity is concerning...&lt;p&gt;Seems like it may be more stable to just stick with OCaml syntax and js_of_ocaml [1] for now...&lt;p&gt;Also interesting that OCaml is not mentioned a single time on the new website [2]. I guess they&amp;#x27;re trying to appeal to JS devs and sell it as a new thing, but seems useful to at least be aware that there&amp;#x27;s a connection to an established language?&lt;p&gt;[1]: &lt;a href=&quot;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;ocsigen.org&amp;#x2F;js_of_ocaml&amp;#x2F;3.7.0&amp;#x2F;manual&amp;#x2F;overview&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;https:&amp;#x2F;&amp;#x2F;ocsigen.org&amp;#x2F;js_of_ocaml&amp;#x2F;3.7.0&amp;#x2F;manual&amp;#x2F;overview&lt;/a&gt;

Not only did it scratch my itch for functional programming, but I also got to use one of the best type systems around as well, given how this project lives on top of the OCaml compiler.&lt;p&gt;That said, there were definitely some rough spots along the way, but I&amp;#x27;m hopeful that this re-branding and unification of the infrastructure is a step in the right direction.</text></comment>
