Cross-Compilation Standard
Noun · Open Source
Definitions
A standard or convention for building software on one platform for a different target platform or architecture. In tooling culture, cross-compilation standards help reduce the chaos of platform-specific assumptions in build pipelines.
In plain English: A standard approach for building software for different target platforms.
Example: "The project adopted a clearer cross-compilation standard so ARM and x86 releases would stop relying on a pile of undocumented platform-specific patches."
