Conference slide for FUNOCaml 2025 workshop in Warsaw, Poland on September 15-16. Features a circular photo of presenter Nicolรกs Ojeda Bรคr, a smiling man with brown hair wearing a blue shirt. The workshop is titled "Hacking the OCaml Compiler to Add Type Reflection" and describes how LexiFi maintains a powerful fork of the OCaml compiler with type reflection capabilities as an alternative to PPX. The workshop offers hands-on experience implementing a toy version of type reflection in the compiler, serving as both an introduction to the technique and a "compiler hacking 101" experience for those interested in contributing to OCaml's development
