Tangentially relates, but if any Roc devs are around I'm curious about the use cases for Roc.

It's supposed to be a scripting language right you embed into your C ABI right?

Do you see it competing with WASM for the plugin use case (i.e. a really large Roc platform)? Why would an app author prefer to expose a Roc layer to their app rather than a WASM layer? With a WASM layer, plugin devs can write in any language.

Another use case I've heard from it is as a more app-level language (i.e. a really small Roc platform). Do you see it competing with Gleam for server side http code? Do you see it competing with Elm for client side code?
