OCaml 4.08 is adding a new let+ syntax which is really useful when writing monadic-style code (PR). The Dune authors wrote a syntax shim to add support for the syntax for OCaml >= 4.02 (announcement, code). Is there any plan or interest in adding this to BuckleScript before BuckleScript is upgraded to OCaml 4.08 (which is probably going to happen several months after 4.08 final is out)?
Backporting let+ syntax to BuckleScript using Dune's ocaml-syntax-shims?

I proposed this here: https://github.com/BuckleScript/bucklescript/issues/1326
This would be really good to have imho 
Awesome! I just added the 7th 
on the comment. I hope Bob considers this. I’d love to use it with a Promise wrapper.

That’d be awesome, current use of promises is a bit clumsy, this let+ syntax is very clear and would definitely solve the promise issue (plus tons of other use cases for monads)
