Warm thanks and help

Used libraries

Preface use several libraries (especially for unit tests). For more information, feel free to refer to the OPAM files located at the root of the project. Here is a list of our dependancies:

  • Alcotest - for the definition of unit tests
  • QCheck - for the definition of properties based testing (coupled with Alcotest)
  • Either - for having an Either.t before OCaml 4.12

Used tools

In addition to OCaml, we use tools from the OCaml ecosystem:

  • Dune - as a build system (and task runner)
  • OCamlformat - as a code formatter in order to keep our code formatted according to fixed standards.
  • Odoc - as a documentation generator.
  • mdx - for guide as tests

In addition, we use Merlin and Tuareg or OCaml mode as IDE. For the more adventurous with more RAM IntelliJ.
