 # From MIR to Binaries

 So what do we need to do?
 
-0. First, we need to collect the set of things to generate code for. In
-   particular, we need to find out which concrete types to substitute for
-   generic ones, since we need to generate code for the concrete types.
-   Generating code for the concrete types (i.e. emitting a copy of the code for
-   each concrete type) is called _monomorphization_, so the process of
-   collecting all the concrete types is called _monomorphization collection_.

 1. Next, we need to actually lower the MIR to a codegen IR
    (usually LLVM IR) for each concrete type we collected.
-2. Finally, we need to invoke the codegen backend, which runs a bunch of
-   optimization passes, generates executable code, and links together an
-   executable binary.

 The code for codegen is actually a bit complex due to a few factors:
 
-- Support for multiple codegen backends (LLVM, Cranelift, and GCC). We try to share as much
-  backend code between them as possible, so a lot of it is generic over the
-  codegen implementation. This means that there are often a lot of layers of
-  abstraction.

 - Codegen happens asynchronously in another thread for performance.
 - The actual codegen is done by a third-party library (either of the 3 backends).
