A language developer is an organization or individual that develops and distributes a programming language. This includes vendors, which are companies that sell APL implementations, as well as developers of free implementations. In the [[wikipedia:Mainframe computer|mainframe]] era it was common for hardware vendors to create APL implementations in machine code for their particular architecture. Developers active today use portable languages in order to support multiple architectures. | A language developer is an organization or individual that develops and distributes a programming language.
