Gabriel Nordeborn discusses the design, compiler, and benefits of ReScript as a strongly-typed alternative to TypeScript.

ReScript is a strongly-typed programming language that compiles to JavaScript, and that puts it squarely in competition with TypeScript. So why would a JavaScript developer choose to learn it next? What does it offer that makes it a tempting proposition? And how are the ReScript developers making life easier for anyone who wants to make the switch? To answer all these questions and more, I’m joined this week by Gabriel Nordeborn, one of ReScript’s compiler contributors. -- ReScript: rescript-lang.org/ ReScript & React: rescript-lang.org/docs/react/latest/introduction Reanalyze: github.com/rescript-lang/reanalyze Support Developer Voices on Patreon: patreon.com/DeveloperVoices Support Developer Voices on YouTube: youtube.com/@DeveloperVoices/join Gabriel on BlueSky: bsky.app/profile/did:plc:c55mqp6e6r24rrrypkmx7ker Kris on Bluesky: bsky.app/profile/krisajenkins.bsky.social Kris on Mastodon: mastodon.social/@krisajenkins Kris on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/krisjenkins/ -- Intro What is ReScript?
