initial ocaml on windows explanation #1600

Closed patricoferris closed 3 years ago

patricoferris commented 3 years ago

This PR starts the explanation of the current state of OCaml on Windows fixing #1598. As a small disclaimer, I have never used Windows with OCaml and I don't have all of the context for the current (and future) work being done to improve OCaml on Windows. But hopefully this is a start so others can fill in the details if required.

cc: @dra27 who has been very helpful providing Windows feedback :))

I'm happy to merge this quickly and have followup PRs with refinements. Thanks Patrick!

patricoferris commented 3 years ago

Sounds good to me if you are happy this information is accurate. I was going to ping the original folks on discuss but there wasn't much activity on the issue so might not be worth it :))

patricoferris commented 3 years ago

Thanks both :))

Sorry - I messed up that URL… it’s got too many sets of brackets now!

avsm commented 3 years ago

thanks @patricoferris @dra27 !

Just a followup I noticed https://ocaml.org/docs/install.html#Windows should probably cross-link to this new updated info.
