Clang/LLVM - 현대 컴파일러 인프라스트럭처

Clang과 LLVM은 소프트웨어 개발 도구의 landscape를 근본적으로 변화시킨 혁신적인 컴파일러 설계 접근법을 대표합니다. LLVM(Low Level Virtual Machine)은 모듈식이고 재사용 가능한 컴파일러 및 툴체인 기술의 모음이며, Clang은 LLVM을 백엔드로 사용하는 C, C++, Objective-C, Objective-C++ 컴파일러 프론트엔드입니다. 처음에 일리노이 대학에서 개발되고 나중에 Apple, Google, 그리고 수많은 다른 기술 기업들에 의해 채택된 Clang/LLVM은 뛰어난 오류 진단, 더 빠른 컴파일 시간, 모듈식 아키텍처, 그리고 훌륭한 크로스 플랫폼 지원으로 널리 사용되고 있습니다. 프로젝트의 깨끗한 API, 포괄적인 문서, 그리고 확장성에 대한 강조는 이를 수많은 개발 도구, 정적 분석기, 그리고 언어 구현의 기반으로 만들어, 현대 소프트웨어 개발 인프라의 핵심으로 자리 잡았습니다.
