This course provides a practical exploration of the OCaml programming language, focusing on its application in real-world systems. Participants will learn about engineering design, the trade-offs between different solutions, and the importance of non-technical aspects in project success. The course covers various topics including problem-solving with OCaml, code refactoring, team collaboration using types, and interfacing OCaml with other languages. It is designed as an experience report, sharing insights from real projects to help learners understand when and how to effectively use OCaml. The intended audience includes software developers and engineers interested in adopting OCaml for their projects, particularly those looking to understand its practical applications and benefits in software development.
