## Embedding
The C API for Janet is not yet documented but coming soon.
Janet can be embedded in a host program very easily. There is a make target `make amalg`
which creates the file `build/janet.c`, which is a single C file that contains all the source
to Janet. This file, along with `src/include/janet/janet.h` can dragged into any C project
and compiled into the project. Janet should be compiled with `-std=c99` on most compilers, and
will need to be linked to the math library, `-lm`, and the dynamic linker, `-ldl`, if one wants
to be able to load dynamic modules. If there is no need for dynamic modules, add the define
`-DJANET_NO_DYNAMIC_MODULES` to the compiler options.
## Compiling and Running
Janet only uses Make and batch files to compile on Posix and windows
