Coming from [this thread](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/how-to-create-standalone-applications-for-windows-with-a-ui-in-julia-1-11-or-1-12/127823/14), I need to compile my Julia module .jl file to a DLL that I can later include in other programs.

I heard that juliac could do this. Can anybody please give me a step by step instruction on how to compile a Julia module to a DLL? I already downloaded Julia 1.12 beta and I am willing to try out experimental things. But I am a new user thus need a step by step instruction.
