In version 2.5.2, we added a heavyweight new feature: `Pull remote cross-compilation toolchain automatically`.

Those who have done cross-compilation and have experience in C/C++ project migration should know that it is very troublesome to toss various cross-compilation toolchains

and transplant and compile projects. You need to download the corresponding toolchain yourself.
15
-
16
-
And it is easy to make mistakes in configuring the toolchain and the compilation environment to cause compilation failure.
17
-
18
-
Now, xmake can already support the automatic download of the toolchain required by the project, and then use the corresponding toolchain to directly compile the project.

The user does not need to care about how to configure the toolchain. In any case, just execute the `xmake` command to complete the compilation.

In addition to the cross-compilation toolchain, we can also automatically pull toolchains, such as specific versions of llvm, llvm-mingw, zig

Even cmake does not support the automatic pull of the toolchain. At most, it can only cooperate with third-party package management such as vcpkg/conan to integrate C/C++ dependent packages.
