PROFILE

Louis Gesbert

Worked on the ocaml/opam-repository, delivering new OCaml developer tooling and improving package management workflows. Developed and packaged tools such as ocp-browser and ocp-index to enhance code completion and documentation access, and released a specialized fork of ocp-indent with updated metadata for streamlined onboarding. Led the Opam packaging of Catala 1.0.0~alpha, defining dependencies and build steps to support reproducible builds for legislative algorithm research. Addressed installation reliability by fixing Catala-format’s configuration directory setup. Demonstrated expertise in OCaml, compiler development, and installation scripting, focusing on maintainability, reproducibility, and improved developer experience across the OCaml ecosystem.

In September 2025, delivered Opam packaging for Catala 1.0.0~alpha in the ocaml/opam-repository, enabling straightforward installation and reproducible builds for users deriving algorithms from legislative texts. The effort produced a complete opam package definition with dependencies, build steps, and source URLs for both the Catala compiler and library, positioning Catala for broader adoption within the OCaml ecosystem and research workflows. This packaging work reduces setup friction, accelerates experimentation, and lays the foundation for downstream integration and collaboration.
