GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection
================================
The GNU Compiler Collection includes front ends for [C](c99status.html), [C++](projects/cxx-status.html), Objective-C, [Fortran](fortran/), Ada, Go, D and Modula-2 as well as libraries for these languages (libstdc++,...). GCC was originally written as the compiler for the [GNU operating system](http://www.gnu.org/gnu/thegnuproject.html). The GNU system was developed to be 100% free software, free in the sense that it [respects the user's freedom](http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html).
We strive to provide regular, high quality [releases](releases.html), which we want to work well on a variety of native and cross targets (including GNU/Linux), and encourage everyone to [contribute](contribute.html) changes or help [testing](testing/) GCC. Our sources are readily and freely available via [Git](git.html) and weekly [snapshots](snapshots.html).
Major decisions about GCC are made by the [steering committee](steering.html), guided by the [mission statement](gccmission.html).
