How can I embed the Julia REPL into a C++ executable such that I can connect to it remotely, e.g. from a notebook?

I know about the C++ interop packages but haven’t found anything on the REPL.

```
Thanks, Joel

You can try using [RemoteREPL](https://docs.juliahub.com/RemoteREPL/). With it, you can create a REPL server in your C++ app, and connect to it from a regular Julia REPL.
