 ### Creating and using dynamically linked modules
 
 An important use for Javy is for when you may want or need to generate much smaller Wasm modules. Using the `-d` flag when invoking Javy will create a dynamically linked module which will have a much smaller file size than a statically linked module. Statically linked modules embed the JS engine inside the module while dynamically linked modules rely on Wasm imports to provide the JS engine. Dynamically linked modules have special requirements that statically linked modules do not and will not execute in WebAssembly runtimes that do not meet these requirements.

+# Embedding in Node.js Application
+This example demonstrates how to run Javy in a Node.js (v20+) host application.
+
+## Warning
+This example does NOT show how to run a Node.js application in Javy. This is useful for when you want to run untrusted user generated code in a sandbox. This code is meant to be an example not production-ready code. 
+
+
+## Summary
+This example shows how to use a dynamically linked Javy compiled WASM module. We use std in/out/error to communicate with the embedded javascript see [this blog post](https://k33g.hashnode.dev/wasi-communication-between-nodejs-and-wasm-modules-another-way-with-stdin-and-stdout) for details.
+
+
+### Steps
+
+1. The first step is to compile the `embedded.js` with Javy using dynamic linking:
+```shell
+javy compile embedded.js -d -o embedded.wasm
+```
+2. Next emit the Javy provider
+```shell
+javy emit-provider -o provider.wasm
+```
+3. Then we can run `host.mjs`
+```shell
+node --no-warnings=ExperimentalWarning host.mjs
+```
+
+
+`embedded.js`
+```javascript
+// Read input from stdin
+const input = readInput();
+// Call the function with the input
+const result = foo(input);
+// Write the result to stdout
+writeOutput(result);
+
+// The main function.
+function foo(input) {
+  if (input && typeof input === "object" && typeof input.n === "number") {
+    return { n: input.n + 1 };
+  }
+  return { n: 0 };
+}
+
+// Read input from stdin
+function readInput() {
+  const chunkSize = 1024;
+  const inputChunks = [];
+  let totalBytes = 0;
+
+  // Read all the available bytes
+  while (1) {
+    const buffer = new Uint8Array(chunkSize);
+    // Stdin file descriptor
+    const fd = 0;
+    const bytesRead = Javy.IO.readSync(fd, buffer);
+
+    totalBytes += bytesRead;
+    if (bytesRead === 0) {
+      break;
+    }
+    inputChunks.push(buffer.subarray(0, bytesRead));
+  }
+
+  // Assemble input into a single Uint8Array
+  const { finalBuffer } = inputChunks.reduce(
+    (context, chunk) => {
+      context.finalBuffer.set(chunk, context.bufferOffset);
+      context.bufferOffset += chunk.length;
+      return context;
+    },
+    { bufferOffset: 0, finalBuffer: new Uint8Array(totalBytes) },
+  );
+
+  const maybeJson = new TextDecoder().decode(finalBuffer);
+  try {
+    return JSON.parse(maybeJson);
+  } catch {
+    return;
+  }
+}
+
+// Write output to stdout
+function writeOutput(output) {
+  const encodedOutput = new TextEncoder().encode(JSON.stringify(output));
+  const buffer = new Uint8Array(encodedOutput);
+  // Stdout file descriptor
+  const fd = 1;
+  Javy.IO.writeSync(fd, buffer);
+}
