Revery is a framework for building native, high-performance, cross-platform desktop applications using Reason (OCaml), with React-like and Redux-like libraries bundled in. It compiles to native code with GPU-accelerated rendering, positioning itself as a fast, low-footprint alternative to Electron.

Use cases

• build cross-platform desktop apps without electron
• create native desktop ui in reasonml or ocaml
• gpu-accelerated rendering for desktop applications
• fast startup desktop apps with low memory footprint
• react-like component model for native desktop development
• alternative to electron for performance-sensitive apps

When to choose

• you want native performance and instant startup instead of an embedded browser
• your team knows JavaScript-like syntax but wants OCaml-level performance
• you need consistent cross-platform desktop behavior on macOS, Windows, and Linux

When to avoid

• you need a mature ecosystem with active development and frequent updates
• you prefer JavaScript/TypeScript tooling over Reason/OCaml
• you need extensive third-party UI components or long-term support guarantees
