Adding new practice exercises

Programming ReScript

A topic for announcing/requesting the ownership of creating new practice exercises. I thought this would be tidier than a new topic per exercise.

I’ll claim seive to start with.

I think I’ll look into creating a test generator while I’m in there. Nevermind, I just need to learn the existing setup. I may be updating the contributing doc.

If you did want to look at the test generator, I think it might make more sense to have it hook into configlet’s cached problem-specifications rather than have problem-specifications as a local submodule in the repo. There were some complications that arose from the current setup that might be simpler with such a setup. I’d still for sure keep the CI that checks whether all of the test suites as generated match what the CI can generate from the templates against the current upstream problem-specifications. That’ll help catch regressions if we tweak the generator or templates and it affects an exercise we weren’t looking at.
