Adventures in ReasonML

March 28, 2018

Another adventure in learning a new language. I was on a search to compare TypeScript and Elm along with some alt-js languages and was intrigued by ReasonML, an OCaml backed language, and I wanted to test out rebuilding word4’s web ui since it was lacking some love since I gave up the domain.

Overlay HTML on Fullscreen Video

January 27, 2016

This question popped-up on my research project with Alexander Gaipo‘s Masters thesis regarding our project on First Screen eXperience (FSX).
