Hi, I have done as you asked and drafted the PR.

May I work on this?

Hi @moazzammoriani! Thanks for volunteering to work on this issue. I've described the next steps below, do ask if something is unclear.

I hope you've been able to setup OCaml on your machine. Let us know if there are any issues with it, we can sort that out.

The first step I'd suggest is to start a run of sandmark on 5.0.0+trunk. You can do it with this script from within sandmark directory: https://github.com/ocaml-bench/sandmark/blob/main/run_all_serial.sh

sh run_all_serial.sh

should do the trick.

After the run is over, you'll be able to see the results in the _results directory.

Next, js_of_ocaml is currently disabled for the benchmark run. To enable it again, you'll need to remove it from the list here: https://github.com/ocaml-bench/sandmark/blob/main/ocaml-versions/5.0.0%2Btrunk.json#L20. Now, do the run again. You should see the js_of_ocaml dependency failing and run not completing. It's because the version in the dependencies does not work with our compiler. Post the failure message here if you see it. Let me know once you are done with the above two items, I'll add more details on how to fix the error. You can also create a draft PR after removing js_of_ocaml from the 5.0.0+trunk file and we can go from there.
