I recommend the following, more modern and comprehensive tools!

• BetterOCaml.ml is a good little OCaml editor (with the code on the left, the output of its execution on the right), developed by a CPGE MP* student in 2020) ;

• TryOCaml.OCamlPro.com is another good environment to use the basic OCaml system online, without installing anything!It’s done by OCamlPro and the « official » solution ;

• Learn-OCaml is a heavier and more complete environment. Not sure if it works entirely offline.

Locally use an OCaml editor and interpreter? It is possible on this site! Without having to install anything!

BetterOCaml is a simple OCaml console and editor, but one that works online without the need for a server that computes your code behind: everything is interpreted in javascript in your browser!I host a local copy here: BetterOCaml. It is also on ocaml.besson.link.

Simple OCaml Toplevel

The page ocaml.en.html embeds a simpler OCaml terminal, less up-to date, but which has the advantage of being easier to include (a single Javascript file, _static/toplevel.js, and no CSS tweaks).
