[llvm-dev] Question about the platform/OS used by most LLVM developers
Hi, I'm working on a tool that is very useful for working with compiler IR and the plan is to open source it next year (I work on the MSVC optimizer at Microsoft). It's a Windows-based UI tool, but does work well on Linux using Wine with a couple of distributions I tried, including Ubuntu. What I wonder is what OS most LLVM devs use for the typical dev work, bug investigations etc. that involve dealining with LLVM IR/MLIR. I assume most are not using Windows, but do wonder about the Linux/Mac OS split, and then for Linux what distro. Was there such a survey ever done? If I'd make a survey, would people be willing to answer it? :) Knowing this would help make sure the tool works fine for the platform used by most LLVM devs. Thanks, Gratian Lup -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
