# Why did I build it?

I want to reduce the barrier for learning ReasonML as much as possible. Having a REPL right inside the browser would help trememdously with the adoption of the language.

It was all started when I saw this website [http://ocsigen.org/js_of_ocaml/toplevel.html#version=4.06.0](http://ocsigen.org/js_of_ocaml/toplevel.html#version=4.06.0).
