Create Dynamically Loadable Rhai Libraries
===========================================
{{#include ../links.md}}
```admonish danger.small "Linux or Windows only"
`rhai-dylib` currently supports only Linux and Windows.
```
`rhai-dylib` is an independent crate that demonstrates an API to register Rhai functionalities via
_dynamic shared libraries_ (i.e. `.so` in Linux or `.dll` in Windows).
In other words, functions and [modules] can be defined in external libraries that are loaded
dynamically at _runtime_, allowing for great flexibility at the cost of depending on the unstable
Rust ABI.
A [module resolver] is also included.
