dockcross
Pre-configured Docker images with cross-compilation toolchains for building software across multiple architectures and platforms.
What is dockcross?
Dockcross is a collection of Docker images that provide pre-configured cross-compilation toolchains for building software targeting multiple CPU architectures and operating systems. It solves the problem of setting up complex cross-compilation environments by packaging compilers, libraries, and build tools into portable containers that work consistently across different host systems.
Developers and system integrators who need to build software for embedded systems, multiple Linux architectures, Android, Windows, or WebAssembly from a single development machine, particularly those working on CI/CD pipelines or projects requiring reproducible builds.
Dockcross eliminates the headache of manually configuring cross-compilation toolchains by providing ready-to-use Docker images with everything pre-installed and properly configured. It offers a consistent, isolated build environment that works across different host systems and simplifies targeting exotic or multiple architectures.
