Toolchain Setup Documentation:

These precompiled toolchains setup requires just three easy steps - Downloading, Extracting and Linking:

WIKI-Documentation (en-English)

Supported Toolchains Programming Languages:

C++
Fortran
C
Any other language support can be easily compiled.

Build-Script for Developers: Do It Yourself

Open-Source is awesome

This project now provides user-friendly open-sourced bash build-scripts that auto-generates Compressed Cross & Native GCC ARM & ARM64 Toolchain binaries targeting Raspberry Pi 32-bit & 64-bit OSes.
If you need additional language support or need to compile another suitable GCC version toolchains for your Raspberry Pi, then you can use these scripts to manually compile any GCC toolchains by running suitable build-scripts yourself through your system terminal.
You can find complete information about these build-scripts here

If these binaries helped you big time, please consider supporting it through any size donations. ❤️

Also please share your thoughts or just drop a 🌟.

Additional Information

Supported Devices:

All Raspberry Pi hardware/versions/models are currently supported.
Any other ARM & ARM64 Device (such as Android, other SBCs, IoT etc.) with similar or compatible Hardware architecture(see Optimization Flags), should also work.

Optimization Flags Involved:

These toolchains are built with these following system-specific LTO (Link Time Optimization) flags, therefore you can easily take advantage of your Raspberry Pi's CPU specific features with these Toolchains while compiling your programs:

Raspberry Pi Board	Link Time Optimization Flags
Raspberry Pi - Zero W/WH/2W & 1 Model A/B/A+/B+	`-march=armv6 -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=vfp`
Raspberry Pi - 2/3 Model A/B	`-march=armv7-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon-vfpv4`
Raspberry Pi - 3 Model A+/B+ & 4 Model 400/B & 5 & Compute 3/3-lite/3+/4 (32-Bit)	`-march=armv8-a -mfloat-abi=hard -mfpu=neon-fp-armv8`
Raspberry Pi - 3 Model A+/B+ & 4 Model B 400/B & 5 & Compute 3/3-lite/3+/4 (64-Bit)	`-march=armv8-a+fp+simd`

Raspberry Pi 5: The latest Raspberry Pi 5 uses a Broadcom BCM2711 SoC with a 2.4GHz 64-bit Quad-core Arm Cortex-A76 processor, that also have armv8-a architecture similar to Raspberry Pi 4, therefore it is also officially supported!
