This page is completely unusable due to lag. From the other comments it seems this is FF specific. One would think FB would have the resources to test new pages at least on common browsers before publishing. Edit: The fix came quickly though.

Thanks, we're looking into how to fix the perf in FF. Meanwhile, it works on my tiny mobile cell phone.
Disabling the box shadow on .content-root fixes the performance bug (FF46.0).

#85This looks very interesting. I've always had OCaml in mind but never actually got around to using it in a project. Facebook could have done a better job describing what exactly this is, but they do provide a good overview at the end of the page (strangely!) [1]. In summary, Reason [2] is a new language (correction: interface to OCaml) that shares a part of the OCaml compiler toolchain and runtime. I don't know of any…
> The OCaml compiler is organized into several stages, which are exposed as libraries. Reason replaces part of the compiler toolchain with a completely new syntax parser that is more approachable, while still fully compatible with the rest of the compiler. Reason also implements a new source printer which integrates into your IDE and the new custom REPL.

#89The comma placement suggests that developer is an adjective for experience.

#90I for one welcome the syntax. I run the OCaml meetup in Silicon Valley and syntax is definitely an issue for newcomers. This makes it easier for other programmers to instantly just jump into OCaml/ML rather than ask about what is `in` or what is `let foo = function`, etc etc. EDIT: Hosting a Meetup this friday at 6pm in San Francisco about Reason and how to instantly start using it, http://www.meetup.com/sv-ocaml/eve…
