# IL linker
|
|
|
|
The linker is a tool one can use to only ship the minimal possible IL code and metadata that a set of
|
|
programs might require to run as opposed to the full libraries.
|
|
|
|
It is used by the various Xamarin products to extract only the bits of code that are needed to run
|
|
an application on Android, iOS and other platforms.
|
|
|
|
