Whatever you’re not familiar in the digital textbook OCaml Programming: Correct + Efficient + Beautiful
There’s a whole chapter on modules
There’s also a section on Monads
You should also know that there is a schism in OCaml ecosystem created by the libraries developed by Jane Street and the those developed by INRIA.

I did see the Jane street stuff. Is it better to use them instead of the standard library?

I don’t know if one is better than the other, but knowing that certain libraries are incompatible based on this bifurcation is a good thing to remember.
