Hi all,

we’re adding an “OCaml Cookbook” feature to [OCaml.org](http://OCaml.org) where the community can share recipes (small code snippets) for common tasks. These recipes can use packages from the OCaml ecosystem.

A PR for a prototype is up at [Prototype OCaml Cookbook by tmattio · Pull Request #1839 · ocaml/ocaml.org · GitHub](https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml.org/pull/1839) and can be explored on

> **[OCaml Cookbook](https://staging.ocaml.org/cookbook)**
>
> A collection of recipes to get things done in OCaml.

I am tempted to take inspiration in spirit primarily from the Rust Cookbook ([Table of Contents - Rust Cookbook](https://rust-lang-nursery.github.io/rust-cookbook/intro.html)), since this is focused entirely on tasks that may be required for shipping applications to production.

However, people also mentioned that they like the format of Go by Example ([Go by Example: Sorting](https://gobyexample.com/sorting)) a lot.

The current prototype of the cookbook on [OCaml Cookbook](http://staging.ocaml.org/cookbook) combines both of these ideas.

Please comment any feedback, ideas, etc. Either here or directly on the PR at [Prototype OCaml Cookbook by tmattio · Pull Request #1839 · ocaml/ocaml.org · GitHub](https://github.com/ocaml/ocaml.org/pull/1839)!

The final version may be simpler - for example, we might find that no recipes need more than a single file, in which case we’ll remove the capability to have multiple files on a recipe.

Also, I will definitely need your help in completing the list of tasks and creating all those recipes. You can make suggestions on the PR to add tasks. ❤
