We empower OCaml and its community
The OCaml Software Foundation is a (non-profit) foundation whose mission
is to promote, protect, and advance the OCaml programming language and its
ecosystem, and to support and facilitate the growth of a diverse and
international community of OCaml users.
We collect donations from our sponsors, companies, entities or people
interested in growing the OCaml programming language, and redistribute
these resources to grow, support and strengthen the OCaml community.
Some of our recent actions
Internships
We fund internships to advance the OCaml ecosystem and also grow new OCaml
contributors. In 2019 and 2020 we funded Outreachy internships to improve
the OCaml compiler and language tools, a research
internship on OCaml type inference, and development internships on
teaching platforms.
Learn-OCaml Platform
We support the development of the Learn-OCaml
exercise platform and try to facilitate its adoption by teachers. We
provided financial support to some early-adopters of the Learn-OCaml
platform (McGill university). We are funding teachers to grow a shared
corpus of high-quality exercises. We also provided financial support to
run new editions of the OCaml MOOC, open to everyone.
