LLVM Target

LLVM Target refers to the specific architecture for which code is being compiled in the LLVM (Low-Level Virtual Machine) framework. LLVM is a collection of tools used to optimize and transform code during compilation. Each "target" defines how code should be generated and executed on different hardware, like CPUs or GPUs. This allows developers to write code once and then compile it to run efficiently on various systems. By supporting multiple targets, LLVM enhances portability and performance, enabling software to take full advantage of the underlying hardware capabilities.
