DkML Installer
DkML is an open-source set of software that supports software development with mixed OCaml/C development. DkML's strengths are its:
- full compatibility with OCaml standards like Opam, Dune and ocamlfind
- laser focus on "native" development (desktop software, mobile apps and embedded software) through support for the standard native compilers like Visual Studio and Xcode
- ease-of-use through simplified installers and simple productivity commands; high school, college and university students should be able to use it
- security through reproducibility, versioning and from-source builds
These alternatives may be better depending on your use case:
- Developing in a Javascript first environment? Have a look at Esy and Reason
- Developing operating system kernels? Have a look at Mirage OS
- Developing Linux server software like web servers? Plain old OCaml on Debian, etc. works well
- Writing compilers or proofs? Plain old OCaml works really well
The DkML Installer for OCaml generates and distributes installers for the DkML distribution. Windows, Debian/x86_64 and macOS/Silicon are ready today.
