* No closures - do your closure magic in Rust instead; [turn a Rhai scripted function into a Rust closure]({{rootUrl}}/engine/call-fn.md).
* No byte-codes/JIT - Rhai has an AST-walking interpreter which will not win any speed races. The purpose of Rhai is not
to be extremely _fast_, but to make it as easy as possible to integrate with native Rust programs.
to be extremely _fast_, but to make it as easy as possible to integrate with native Rust applications.
Due to this intended usage, Rhai deliberately keeps the language simple and small by omitting advanced language features
such as classes, inheritance, first-class functions, closures, concurrency, byte-codes, JIT etc.

Avoid the temptation to write full-fledge application logic entirely in Rhai - that use case is best fulfilled by
more complete languages such as JavaScript or Lua.
Therefore, in actual practice, it is usually best to expose a Rust API into Rhai for scripts to call.

Currently, [`no_std`] requires the nightly compiler due to the crates that it uses.

To run the scripts, either make a tiny program or use of the `rhai_runner` example:
The [`rhai_runner`](../examples/rust.md) example can be used to run the scripts:
```bash
