## Welcome
2010-03-16 16:20:23 +01:00
2015-06-02 23:44:12 +02:00
The ZeroMQ lightweight messaging kernel is a library which extends the
2010-03-16 16:20:23 +01:00
standard socket interfaces with features traditionally provided by
2015-06-02 23:44:12 +02:00
specialised messaging middleware products. ZeroMQ sockets provide an
2010-03-16 16:20:23 +01:00
abstraction of asynchronous message queues, multiple messaging patterns,
message filtering (subscriptions), seamless access to multiple transport
protocols and more.
## Supported platforms <a name="#platforms"/>
Libzmq is mainly written in C++98 with some optional C++11-fragments. For
configuration either autotools or CMake is employed. See below for some lists
of platforms, where libzmq has been successfully compiled on.

For some platforms (Linux, Mac OS X), [prebuilt binary packages are supplied by the ZeroMQ organization](#installation).
For other platforms, you need to [build your own binaries](#build).
