Comment on Alpaca – Functional programming inspired by ML for the Erlang VMparent

There's also Standard ML, which smaller, and fully specified, with multiple implementations.

But I think part of the problem with both is tooling. Build and dependency tooling in particular. Opam was a good step in the right direction, but I think OCaml and SML could both benefit from a Cargo-like tool, that made managing projects and their dependencies simpler.
