Documentation

ChaiScript is a scripting language that easily embeds into your existing C++ applications. It's built to be flexible and dynamic, yet still maintain the type-safety you expect as a C++ user. It can natively use classes, methods, and attributes, even if the class inherits functionality from a parent class.

As of 2.0, it also supports exceptions and automatic thread-safety.

As of 3.0.0, the online documentation is deprecated and all official documentation is part of the source code in the form of Doxygen style comments.
