Malcolm Matalka, founder of Terrateam, joins
host Giovanni Asproni to talk about the reasoning behind
choosing a not-so-widespread language (OCaml) and (almost)
totally avoiding frameworks for the development of Terrateam.
While discussing the reasons for choosing this specific
programming language and the advantages and disadvantages of
using external frameworks, they also consider a range of related
topics, including static vs. dynamic typing, the use of
monorepos, and the advantages of choosing a single language that
can be used both for web front ends and server back ends. The
episode ends with lessons learned that can be applied to other
contexts and projects.
