it's indeed beautiful and I immensely enjoy it[1], but while exploring convivial, malleable tools, I consider OCaml too heavy a toolchain - compared to the lua runtime.

I want tinkering with tools approachable for hobbyists, newcomers and brave non-techs.

Maintaining an OCaml toolchain (in fact any toolchain) feels too high a bar for what I am after.

Cheers,
Marcus
