to compile to C++, Objective-C or JavaScript. This document tries to
concentrate in a single place all the backend and interfacing options.
The Nimrod compiler supports mainly two backends: the C (and derivate) and the
JavaScript targets. The C target creates source files which can be compiled
into a library or a final executable. The JavaScript target generates a
``.js`` file which you call from an HTML file. On top of generating a library
or executable, Nimrod offers bidirectional interfacing with the backend
targets through generic and specific pragmas.
