Dart FFI and CLI App

A statically linked library is embedded into the app’s executable image and is loaded when the app starts.

Symbols from a statically linked library can be loaded using DynamicLibrary.executable or DynamicLibrary.process.

A dynamically linked library is distributed in a separate file or folder within the app and loaded on-demand. A dynamically linked library can be loaded into Dart via DynamicLibrary.open.
