Self-hosting
The term
self-hosting
was coined to refer to the use of a
computer program
as part of the
toolchain
or
operating system
that produces new versions of that same program—for example, a
compiler
that can compile its own
source code
. Self-hosting software is commonplace on
personal computers
and larger systems. Other programs that are typically self-hosting include
kernel
s,
assemblers
,
command-line interpreters
and
revision control software
.
