I'm looking at starting in Roc for a toy project. I'm wondering whether access is available to non-Roc libraries. As an example: If I wanted to read or write to Excel xlsx file format, then is it possible to interface to a library in another language to handle this? Other examples would be SQL database access, XML parsing etc.

Hi @Michael, yes that is possible :)
Using rust libraries with a rust platform will probably be the easiest way.
