Allo. I'm Xavier Van de Woestyne from 🇧🇪, living in Nantes. I'm a wannabe software engineer who tweets in rough 🇫🇷 and catastrophic 🇬🇧! I'm interested in functional programming (with statically typed languages).

I'm really happy to present, with @tarides.com , #OCaml Eglot, an #Emacs (minor) mode for editing OCaml code, using LSP through Eglot, the built-in #LSP client of Emacs: github.com/tarides/ocam...

Feedback, contribution and RT much appreciated

I was in the audience, and I loved this talk! Although it did lead to late night conversations about why we're allocating external memory in the first place in OCaml, instead of going full zero-copy. My thoughts here: anil.recoil.org/notes/icfp25...
