Wow. Okay, yes. It can be embedded[1]. It can call C code[2].

Julia may have just saved my project (which was dying because it needed a good scripting language that was fast)!

And embedding (and its documentation) will likely get much better very soon.

One big pain point so far is that it won't be easy to actually embed Julia into my app. So users of my app will have to install Julia (probably via homebrew) before they can script the app with it.
