I’m trying to learn ReasonML, having come from Python, Elm and F#. All the tutorials I’ve found suggest I learn React first. Do I have to learn React first? Are there some tutorials which don’t assume this prior knowledge?

There are a couple of different Reason tutorials without ReasonReact. First there’s the Reason website: https://reasonml.github.io/docs/en/overview
Then there is Dr Axel Rauschmayer’s book: http://reasonmlhub.com/exploring-reasonml/
There’s my book: https://www.packtpub.com/application-development/learn-type-driven-development
And lots of other tutorials, YouTube uploads of talks, etc., as well as an Egghead course. People tend to post lots of materials in the subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/reasonml/

If your aim is not to learn how to use bucklescript, then the OCaml books are also relevant. Converting the syntax is not hard.
