Write once, compile anywhere

"Write once, compile anywhere" is a phrase that embodies the principle of platform independence in software development, particularly in reference to programming languages and tools that allow code to be written on one platform and compiled or run on various other platforms without significant modification. This concept gained popularity with the introduction of Java, which is known for its "Write once, run anywhere" (WORA) capability. Java programs are compiled into bytecode, which is then executed by the Java Virtual Machine (JVM).
