Indeed, js_of_ocaml is kind of shocking in its fidelity. It can compile even highly complex libraries that do lots of runtime tricks. Async_kernel and Incremental_kernel both compiled and worked without any issues whatsoever. We've even built some support for making incrementally rendered web-apps in OCaml, using Async and Incremental. Here's a link: https://github.com/janestreet/incr_dom It sounds like Bucklescript is doing something quite different, which is to aim for pretty JavaScript output, while compromising and maintaining semantic consistency with OCaml. I don't fully understand the use-case, but for us, js-of-ocaml is clearly the thing we want.
