In the .NET world we're developing on Windows/x64 and deploying on Linux/ARM64 en masse at this point. I haven't personally seen an issue yet where I had to debug a Linux- or ARM64-specific issue. I think different language ecosystems have wildly differing levels of readiness for this.
- TillE 3y agoThe platform of course matters less and less as you move into higher-level stuff. The necessary abstractions have already been built for you. Though even in .NET you can still get bitten by assumptions about endianness, for example.

- electroly 3y agox64 and ARM64 are both little endian on Linux and Windows; there are never endianness issues when moving from Windows/x64 to Linux/ARM64. You can freely assume little endian and that's fine in this combination. It's one of many benefits ARM64 has going for it that IBM POWER does not.
- andrewf 3y agoThe commercial Linux world (see https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/4349 https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/issues/4349) and other open source OSes (eg FreeBSD) seem to have lined up behind little-endian PowerPC. IBM still has a big-endian problem with AIX, IBM i, and Linux on Z.
