Create an FAQ on common interop topics

Open mfeineis opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

People who know other languages almost always have the same kind of questions about why Elm chooses to do stuff in specific - usually uncommon - ways. It might be helpful to include an FAQ on the usual topics with links to discourse and elm-discuss/elm-dev (regarding taks ports, FFI, kernel code, etc)

  • [ ] Do the thing
  • [ ] Decide whether this should be part of this repo
  • [ ] put it where it belongs
