[llvm][docs] Refresh Arm builtins cross compile guide (#150966) Someone asked about this on Discord and it was a bit hard to follow. I found them a config that worked, but the doc was not as much help as it should have been. It probably needs some updates for the runtime build era, but for now, I'm just making it easier to read. I know the basic build can work at least. Some aspects of it may be literally wrong now, but I'll check that later. * Remove contractions. * Remove references to the old separate llvm repo layout. * Remove mentions of cmake versions older than what llvm requires now. * Make a bunch of things plain text. * Make a bunch of things code blocks so they are easier to copy and paste from.
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
