	Platform (computing) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In computing, a platform describes some sort of framework, either in hardware or software, which allows software to run.
		Typical platforms include a computer's architecture, operating system, or programming languages and their runtime libraries.
		In relation to hardware, platform often describes the set of hardware components that make up the computer itself, that the software is written to target (often just described as "written for an architecture").
