LLVM IR
LLVM IR (Intermediate Representation) is a low-level, platform-independent programming language used internally by compilers. It acts as a common code format that enables different programming languages to be translated into a consistent, optimized code before being converted into machine-specific instructions. Think of it as a universal middle language that makes it easier for compilers to analyze, optimize, and generate efficient software across different hardware architectures. This approach improves portability, performance, and flexibility in software development.
