Fable is an F# to JavaScript compiler powered FSharp Compiler Services, designed to make F# a first-class citizen of the JavaScript ecosystem. Check the website for more information and if you find the project useful, don't forget to give us a star!
Fable actually uses a fork of FCS with a few tweaks. Binaries are in
lib/fcsfolder. See this PR for more info.

You can use VSCode Dev Container to get a preconfigured environment both with requirements and VSCode extensions.
- You need to have docker installed and running.
- Install the Dev Container extension in VSCode
- Open the project in VSCode and click on the green button in the bottom left corner.
Make sure the following requirements are installed in your system:
- dotnet SDK 6 or higher
- node.js with npm
- Python 3 is installed and available as
python - Poetry
- Rust
- Dart
Run ./builsh.sh or ./build.cmd to see the build options.
When using VSCode, you can also run the build tasks from the command palette (Ctrl+Shift+P) by typing Run Task and selecting the task you want to run.
We also configured several debug configurations that you can use from the debug panel (Ctrl+Shift+D). This is useful as you can attach the debugger to the Fable compiler process to check what's going on.
Just by using Fable you're already contributing! You can help the community a lot by sharing examples and experiences in your personal (or Fable's) blog and/or by editing the Fable Resources page.
