Open Source OCaml (Objective Caml) Libraries

A programming framework for building type-safe, modular systems. MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels for secure, high-performance network applications across a variety of cloud computing and mobile platforms. Code can be developed on a normal OS such as Linux or macOS, and then compiled into a fully standalone, specialized unikernel that runs under a Xen or KVM hypervisor. This lets your services run more efficiently, securely and with finer control than with a full conventional software stack.

OCaml is a general-purpose, industrial-strength programming language with an emphasis on expressiveness and safety. OCaml’s powerful type system means more bugs are caught at compile-time, and large, complex codebases are easier to maintain. This makes it a good language for running critical code. At the same time, sophisticated inference makes the type system unobtrusive, creating a smooth developer experience. OCaml has two compilers. One is a bytecode compiler that generates small, portable executables and is very fast. The other is a native code compiler that produces more efficient machine code; its performance matches the highest standards of modern compilers. OCaml has great support for the most popular editors. VS Code is recommended for beginners, and for power users there is deep integration with Vim and Emacs. OCaml has a rich and dynamic community and best-in-class tooling.

An OCaml kernel for Jupyter Notebook. This provides an OCaml REPL with a great user interface such as markdown/HTML documentation, LaTeX formula by MathJax, and image embedding. OCaml Jupyter requires the libraries zlib, libffi, libgmp, libzmq 5+.

Set of useful Ocaml libraries. Includes: fileinfo (package to track how data files are produced), intvmap (extension to Map), mapmin (a map with access to min and max element) and vec (extensible, functional arrays).
