The Ocsigen team is very happy to announce the first release of two new major projects:
- Ocsigen Start: a Web/mobile application skeleton written with Js_of_ocaml and Eliom, that you can use as a basis for your own app or to learn Web/mobile app programming in OCaml,
- Ocsigen Toolkit: a set of responsive widgets for your mobile and Web applications in OCaml.
Both projects are available on Opam and released under LGPL.
Before installing, you can test an online version of Ocsigen Start here:
The demo application for Android is available in Google Play store:
If you prefer, you can install it manually using the apk file:
iOS version is also available here:
(to be installed via XCode).
Ocsigen Start provides the basic features for user management (registration, activation links, password recovery, etc), and some useful libraries.
Remove the parts you don't need for your own app.
Ocsigen Start also contains many examples of code: remote procedure calls, push notifications from server, reactive pages, database interaction, session data, internationalisation, and some widgets from Ocsigen Toolkit.
Ocsigen Toolkit contains common widgets for mobile and Web apps, written natively in OCaml and specifically designed for Eliom's multi-tier and multi-platform programming style.
You can also use them in client-only Js_of_ocaml programs.
Many new widgets will be added in future versions.
Ocsigen Start and Ocsigen Toolkit are developed by the Ocsigen team at Be Sport and Univ. Paris Diderot/IRILL.
