First experience with new dune

I have been test driving new dune. Here is the workflow I came up with.

$ dune init proj hello

# Edit dune-project depends
(depends ocaml dune ocaml-lsp-server ocamlformat)

$ dune pkg lock

# Run these commands to build ocamllsp, ocamlformat
$ dune exec ocamllsp
$ dune exec ocamlformat

# export PATH for helix editor
$ export PATH="$PWD/_build/_private/default/.pkg/ocaml-lsp-server/target/bin:$PWD/_build/_private/default/.pkg/ocamlformat/target/bin:$PATH"

Start helix editor at bin/main.ml, and LSP just works.

Is there a way to automate LSP installation and changing PATH like above?
