# Frequently Asked Questions

3+
#### Does Slang use LLVM?
4+
5+
No. The Slang compiler itself is not built on the LLVM tech stack, and does not depend on LLVM.
6+
If you are using Slang to generate textual or SPIRV code, no LLVM binaries are required. If you are using Slang to produce standalone executables or dynamically linked
7+
libraries, then a prebuilt LLVM wrapper library called `slang-llvm` is required.
8+
9+
#### What's the distribution size of Slang?
10+
11+
The Slang compiler binary is around 5-10 MB depending on build configuration and target architecture.
