Hello OCamlers,

I have recently rewritten Slipshow’s engine from JavaScript to OCaml.
It turns out this rewriting was very satisfying, and many niceties came out of it.
I have written a blog post about a specifically interesting one: the use of custom let operators with the “undo-able” monad. I hope you enjoy the read!

The blog post: How I fixed Slipshow’s worst flaw using OCaml and a monad.

Cheers!

That was fun to read! And nice to hear that Slipshow was funded and is getting attention :partying_face: I used Slipshow for a presentation last year, and it was wonderful!
