Description
The reason to rewrite the client in ReScript seems pretty obvious to me. It will help us to get a more concrete and more manageable client application. Any plan for this?
I've read issue #269, and the server seems a different story. There will be some trade-off between producing a binary and .ts plus binary. But, I think there are more benefits in rewriting the client in ReScript.
