Description

Hello there,

I am wondering if there are any plans to support LibGodot, where Godot can be used as a static or shared library and embedded into another application?.

If this is not currently planned, I would be interested in doing it myself.

Thank you

Research direction
Investigate Godot's existing embedding capability and check how other language bindings (e.g., GDNative, GDExtension) are structured. Look for any prior discussions or prototypes in the gdext repository or related projects.
