Missing guide for connecting unsupported dataframe-like libraries to DataFrame #1215

@Jolanrensen

Description

@Jolanrensen

Because DataFrame is such a lightweight and close-to-stdlib library, it's fairly trivial to connect other libraries and convert their structures to a dataframe and back. Still, many people don't know that this is possible and may expect some difficult type-mapping to be required, while this often isn't the case.

I believe we should provide a little guide with some examples for how to do this. For instance, we could provide an example for

If needed, we could provide type mappings to generate data schemas too, but often that's not even necessary.

Of course, these examples could turn into a fully fletched io source if needed, but providing them as example could prove valuable I think :)
