I also came across ReasonML recently, and really get to like its syntax. I have yet to see the benefits of runtime type-safety (compared to type-erasure of TS), but it is undeniable that ReasonML is an interesting programming language. How was your experience with ReasonML + React?

Very seamless, but I just did some basic stuff (eg, a photo management tool , just for practice). For me it was refreshing to not have to check for undefined and nulls every other line + no unexpected undefined, etc + the very concise reducers.

Awesome! I will play with reason react this weekend and see what I can get out of it. Thanks for sharing.
