Broken build

Following the instructions, the project compiles but emits a warning about unused ThinBackend

➜  myproject git:(master) ✗ npm run rescript:build

> rescript-project-template@0.0.1 rescript:build

When trying to launch the development server, ThinBackend resolution fails

➜  myproject git:(master) ✗ npm run dev

> rescript-project-template@0.0.1 dev
> node server.js

Development server running on http://localhost:3000

I guess ihp-backend is the old name of the dependency...

The ReScript integration didn’t get much love recently. So it’s best if you give it a try with TypeScript first. We’ll improve the ReScript integration soon-ish and get it working again in the future.

Any news on getting rescript support back again? Anything I can do to help?
