However, there are many situations where an application might want to use Godot as an intermediary. One case would be an application that uses native OS API for it’s UI, but needs Godot to render a complex 3D scene. Our goal is to make Godot available as a library to expand the possible uses of the engine.	type content note This feature is better known as "LibGodot". type content prs - [Migeran LibGodot Feature #90510](https://github.com/godotengine/godot/pull/90510)
