Isn't Hack the other way around?

When I look at Hack.Handler.Happstack, I see the function `appToServerPart' which allows you to convert Hack applications to Happstack server parts.

This means that it allows me to run my Hack applications on Happstack. That exactly the opposite of what I want, I want to run my Happstack applications on Hack. So I can use my favorite interface and my app will be deployable anywhere.


Please correct me if I totally miss the point here.
