 title: ReScript Retreat Recap
 description: |
-  Unleashing ReScript from React
+  Accelerating ReScript development through meeting in-person.
 ---
 
 From the 23rd to the 26th of May, the ReScript team invited many contributors to hack on ReScript. In the end almost all of them responded to the invitation and thus, 15 people from all over the world traveled to Vienna, Austria to meet in person, to do talks, discussions and decisions about and contributions to the ReScript toolchain.

 Maxim started with a little bit of history why the parser was made: The existing parser we used with ReScript's predecessor BuckleScript, which is called ReasonML, was created with a parser generator which had the following drawbacks:

 ## Conclusion
 
 After the retreat, most participants stated that they want to do it again and overall it was a very productive but also fun event for all of us. So it is fairly safe to say that there will be a ReScript Retreat in 2025, at least as long as the ReScript Association is able to stem it financially.
 
 ## Our Sponsors
 
-The ReScript Association paid for all the participants hotel rooms and some of the lunches and dinners. On the first three days we worked at a coworking space which was paid for by the Vienna-based company [cca.io](https://www.cca.io/), which also happens to employ two of our contributors.
