Unreal Engine as DLL?

Development Programming & Scripting C++
1

Does anybody know anything about this roadmap entry? Unreal Engine as a Library for Windows (Beta) - Unreal Engine Public Roadmap | Product Roadmap

TL;DR: UE4 viewport as DLL in any other application

Is there a full article about it somewhere?

Don’t know if there’s any official documentation yet. Looks like it might be this small module here so could be fairly straight forward to use: https://github.com/EpicGames/UnrealEngine/tree/4.27/Engine/Source/Runtime/UELibrary

nice. unfortunately I don’t fully comprehend how you can create an UBT target which will yield a DLL and not an executable. or how this module alone could achieve that if that’s the only thing.
that was noob o’clock. I found it, in *.Target.cs

bShouldCompileAsDLL = true;
