If your taking your first steps in Janestreet’s Async library, here’s some sources of help & support:
My top 5 sources of Async Documentation
Community
Google group for Janestreet’s Core & Async, the JS team are really helpful 🙂 : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ocaml-core
Async issue tracker on Github is quiet but still a good point to start a conversation: https://github.com/janestreet/async/issues?state=open
Installation
I recommend the installation chapter of Real World Ocaml: https://realworldocaml.org/beta3/en/html/installation.html and install instructions for OPAM: http://opam.ocamlpro.com/doc/Quick_Install.html
Janestreet provide some installation hints, though this is covered for comprehensively in RWO (linked above): http://janestreet.github.io/installation.html
Very light background reading: https://ocaml.janestreet.com/?q=node/100
