It takes an OCaml operator or syntax element and gives an explanation of its behaviour, usage examples and warnings about common misuses.
Thanks to @JoshWComeau for the idea and design elements.
- Announcing an operator lookup tool for OCaml! 🐫 🎉 craigfe.io/operator-looku… It takes an OCaml operator or syntax element and gives an explanation of its behaviour, usage examples and warnings about common misuses. Thanks to @JoshWComeau for the idea and design elements.
One of the motivations for this tool was to provide a way for OCaml beginners to quickly distinguish syntax elements from operators. It's difficult to document the "operator-like" bits of syntax (`;`, `<-`, `#` etc.), so it's nice to have a set of explanations to point to.Currently contains explanations for: - all standard library operators, - conventional infix operators (>>=, >>|, >|=), - binding operators (let+, let*, and+, etc.), - syntax that is often confused for an operator (#, ;;). Let me know if you have ideas for extensions!Thanks again to the wonderful @JoshWComeau for the original JavaScript operator lookup (joshwcomeau.com/operator-looku…) and for providing many of the design elements.
