for me the biggest misconception is that you need to know the intrinsics of monads to be able to use them.
i likely know less about the rules of my mother tongue than people who've studied it, yet i'm able to use it fluently

ah right, i think understand now. you were thinking more validating against the schema while teej's approach is essentially using ocaml as the source of truth

teej is building something like this where the queries refer to user defined types and give inline type errors (etc)

fwiw, reason supports named operators `let (let.bind) = Option.bind` (not sure the correct syntax but something along those lines at least), which i miss in ocaml
`let.bind x = …`
vs
`let* x = …`
`let.bind x = …`
vs
`let* x = …`

ngl, i don't hate it, feels like there'd be a lot of ambiguity to handle when parsing though

for reasons unknown, i wrote a little article on getting to know ocaml by writing a simple diff checker

not sure how helfpul, but using the developer preview i use this, i'm sure there's some other way, but ocaml-lsp-server is installed automatically
`dune tools exec ocamllsp —`
`dune tools exec ocamformat —`
preview.dune.build
can very much recommend it, no more opam switches etc

wanted an extremly barebones setup to write ocaml + react (to js), perhaps it can be useful for someone else :) or ”get up and running with ocaml + react.js in under a minute”

the key for me here is that you can communicate that with more finesse and empathy, we're not robots yet :)
