About the project

A collection of modular compiler and toolchain technologies: the LLVM core for intermediate representation processing, the Clang frontend for C/C++/Objective-C, the LLD linker, and the libc++ standard library. Used to build optimizing compilers and code analysis tools.

Useful for

Build a custom compiler or transpiler on top of LLVM IR
Use Clang for static analysis and building C/C++ code
Replace the system linker with LLD to speed up builds

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
