> What's BuckleScript then? How is it related to Reason? If it's related why did it have such a seemingly unrelated name in a first place?

My understanding, is that confusion is part of why they're rebranding everything to ReScript. The language and compiler are now all ReScript.

I think the reasoning for the difference in naming is likely historical. I'm not sure, but I think BuckleScript came before the Reason syntax was developed. But it's not like BuckleScript has any connection to OCaml, either. So I dunno.
