How does one compile a file with an interface, in BuckleScript?

Question

Without bsb, how does one compile any more than a single unqualified .ml file?

$ touch test.ml
$ touch test.mli
$ bsc test.ml
File "test.ml", line 1:
Error: Could not find the .cmi file for interface test.mli.

I haven't even gotten as far as trying to do this with an ocamlfind library, pretty sure I'm going to want to kill myself when I get that far.

Dune doesn't support BuckleScript; bsb doesn't support any of the OCaml testing tools (ppx_inline_test, ppx_expect) or ppx_deriving plugins as far as I can tell … I'm at wits' end here. Help me figure out how to actually use BuckleScript.

Have you tried the method shown here: https://github.com/BuckleScript/bucklescript/issues/2407 — Yawar, Jul 16 '18 at 12:15
“At this time, we don't really encourage people to use ppx in the wild,” — oh no. — ELLIOTTCABLE, Jul 16 '18 at 21:01
