Installation

Requirements:

• rescript >=9.1.2 < 10.0 (alternatively for older codebases: [email protected] or later)

• react >=16.8.1 < 18.0.0 or later

Add following dependency to your ReScript project (in case you don't have any project yet, check out the installation instructions in the manual):

npm install @rescript/react

Then add the following setting to your existing bsconfig.json:

JSON
{
  "reason": { "react-jsx": 3 },
  "bs-dependencies": ["@rescript/react"]
}

To test your setup, create a new .res file in your source directory and add the following code:

RES
// src/Test.res
@react.component
let make = () => {
  <div> {React.string("Hello World")} </div>
}

Now run npx rescript and you should see a successful build.

After a successful installation, @rescript/react will make following modules available in your project's global scope:

• React: Bindings to React

• ReactDOM: Bindings to the ReactDOM

• ReactDOMServer: Bindings to the ReactDOMServer

• ReactEvent: Bindings to React's synthetic events
