What Can Compilers Do for Us?
The document discusses various aspects of cross-compilers and the LLVM (Low-Level Virtual Machine) framework, emphasizing its ability to function as a static compiler without requiring garbage collection or runtime code generation. It highlights the importance of LLVM in modern programming, its components, and the benefits of using a virtualized compiler architecture. Furthermore, it touches on the evolution of programming languages and their relationship with the LLVM infrastructure.
