OCaml Batteries Included

OCaml Batteries included (or simply "Batteries") is a community-driven effort to standardize on an consistent, documented, and comprehensive development platform for the OCaml programming language.

Batteries is meant to serve the following purposes:

• define a standard set of libraries which may be expected on every compliant installation of OCaml;
• organize these libraries into a hierarchy of modules, with one source of documentation;
• define a standard set of language extensions (based on CamlP4) which may be expected on every compliant installation of OCaml;
• provide consistent abstractions and APIs for otherwise independent libraries.

Download & Docs

Batteries can be downloaded from the forge, as usual. The code is free software, licensed under the terms of the GNU LGPL (version 2.1, or above), with the usual OCaml linking exception.
The documentation (platform description and API reference) is available from the doc manager.
