Description
See [Demo: Foreign language interface](../blob/e626dd3a667d9ed8e5079e9dd5a6eb9f563ba99c/inst/example/examples.md#foreign-language-interface)
Prototyping via Rcpp works but compiling of modules requires a standardised installation procedure which Modules ideally should support by providing appropriate functions. Same goes for the loading dynamic libraries, although that is already quite straightforward.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the referenced inst/example/examples.md#foreign-language-interface demo and review the existing Rcpp prototype described in the issue. Determine the standardized installation and loading procedure Modules should provide for compiled modules and dynamic libraries; done means the foreign-language interface works through that procedure.
