Glad to hear the binaries work well for you. We made the binary (and pack) release modes to cut out a ton of dependencies. I would be curious to see what's in /Users/desmond/.esy/store-3.x.x/_build/ocaml-4.02.3-90ad951bb234c3b1e1b5a03e3a5a261a84da222c/_esy/build.log

[jordwalke]

If more people continue to report that binaries are stable, we might just switch to binaries being the recommended path to getting started. I'll still keep this issue open to find out why building from source wasn't working.

To add another data point, beta 1.13.6 installs from source on macOS 10.12.6, for me.

Thanks, we've since updated the reason-cli readme to point to prebuilt binaries.
