What do languages such as Scala Native, Rust and Swift have in common? They all use LLVM to generate native executables for virtually any CPU architecture, from x86 servers to mobile ARM chips.
Just like TypeScript or Elm transpile to JavaScript to run in any browser, modern native languages compile to an LLVM intermediate representation (IR). The LLVM toolchain then acts as the final step, turning that IR into a pure machine code.
