minus-squarechocrates@piefed.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·20 hours agoAbi means application binary interface. Iirc it is a convention basically on how the operating system expects system calls to be made. That is a fancy way of saying it’s how programs can use the operating system. Linux does it one way and windows does it another. It is apart of why we can’t run windows programs on Linux. Executable format is another big reason, I’m sure there are many.
