The engine targets macOS and Linux, so generated browser behavior is checked on Linux too.
TileKit targets macOS and Linux. The Linux path matters because the generator is an engine and CLI, not just a local macOS tool.
The repository runs Swift build and tests in a Linux container. The browser gate also runs on Linux, so generated-site behavior is checked where the public Pages build is produced.
Local Linux runs can use Docker, Colima, Lima, or a native Linux machine.

# Linux-First Builds
TileKit targets macOS and Linux. The Linux path matters because the generator is
an engine and CLI, not just a local macOS tool.
The repository runs Swift build and tests in a Linux container. The browser gate
also runs on Linux, so generated-site behavior is checked where the public Pages
build is produced.
Local Linux runs can use Docker, Colima, Lima, or a native Linux machine.
