From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Super easy to do nowadays, everything I write is cross platform just by virtue of every programming language I use being that way provided I'm somewhat mindful about it
Are there interpreted languages?
Python is the gold standard for cross platform interpreted languages
If what you meant was are they all interpreted, no C# rust and python are the main 3 I use rn and are all cross platform
