This project provides the latest, automated, CI maintained, precompiled Raspberry Pi CPU optimized GCC Cross & Native (ARM & ARM64) Compressed Standalone Toolchains & Build-Scripts, that is fastest to setup and saves you tons of time and thereby helps you to get quickly started with software development with Pi.
Note
Our Cross-Compiler toolchains also works out-of-the-box on any Linux distro via WSL2 on Windows 10 Machines. 💯
