Add more context to wildcard type (`*`) explanation #6805

Closed ElrohirGT closed 2 months ago

ElrohirGT commented 5 months ago

Fixes https://github.com/roc-lang/roc/issues/5038

This PR adds a little bit more context to the wildcard type as discussed in the zullip chat.

It also adds the roc-cli package to the devShell in the flake.nix. This was done because the www/build-dev-local.sh bash script needs roc to run.

I think the wording addition looks good. Just not 100% on the nix addition.

ElrohirGT commented 5 months ago

This PR no longer modifies the flake.nix file, only the tutorial.md file

@ElrohirGT it's hard to explain this really well, so I tried to make some improvements and asked Richard for help to perfect this.

Thank you for your contribution! Sometimes PRs end up staying open for a long time without activity, which can make the list of open PRs get long and time-consuming to review. To keep things manageable for reviewers, this bot automatically closes PRs that haven’t had activity in 60 days. This PR hasn’t had activity in 30 days, so it will be automatically closed if there is no more activity in the next 30 days. Keep in mind that PRs marked Closed are not deleted, so no matter what, the PR will still be right here in the repo. You can always access it and reopen it anytime you like!
