Many languages running on JVM boast of an FFI allowing use of much existing code already written in Java. Is such, or will such be, possible in Flix?

What is the overall status of the implementation, particularly for real world applications (features like talking to a network, file systems, databases and operating system, and/or FFIs for JVM or non-JVM languages)?



I found this[1] section in the documentation on interoperability within the JVM. It looks fairly straightforward to work with. I'm not sure about FFI more generally.
