# Platforms & build types

> What you can build, and how it maps to UnrealBuildTool flags.

BuildPixel supports five platforms out of the box. Console platforms are an Enterprise add-on.

## Platforms

| Platform    | UBT flag  | Notes                             |
| ----------- | --------- | --------------------------------- |
| **Win64**   | `Win64`   | Default, fastest path             |
| **Linux**   | `Linux`   | Cross-compiled                    |
| **Mac**     | `Mac`     | macOS build environment           |
| **Android** | `Android` | NDK r25, ASTC textures by default |
| **iOS**     | `IOS`     | Requires signing config in repo   |

## Build types

Maps to UE's `-clientconfig=` flag.

| Type          | Optimized | Editor code | Symbols      | Use for                         |
| ------------- | --------- | ----------- | ------------ | ------------------------------- |
| `Development` | partial   | yes         | yes          | Daily builds, internal testing  |
| `Shipping`    | full      | no          | no           | Release builds for end users    |
| `DebugGame`   | no        | yes         | full         | Hard-to-repro bug investigation |
| `Test`        | full      | no          | yes          | Profiling and perf work         |
| `Server`      | yes       | no          | configurable | Dedicated server builds         |

## Compatibility

|             | Win64 | Linux | Mac     | Android | iOS     |
| ----------- | ----- | ----- | ------- | ------- | ------- |
| Development | ✓     | ✓     | ✓       | ✓       | ✓       |
| Shipping    | ✓     | ✓     | ✓       | ✓       | ✓       |
| DebugGame   | ✓     | ✓     | ✓       | partial | partial |
| Test        | ✓     | ✓     | ✓       | ✗       | ✗       |
| Server      | ✓     | ✓     | partial | ✗       | ✗       |

`Server` builds on mobile platforms aren't useful — mobile platforms can't host dedicated servers.

## Multi-platform from one source

A single project + branch can have build settings for every platform. Each gets its own build setting. Push to `main` fires all of them.

## Console platforms (Enterprise)

PS5, Xbox Series, and Switch require:

* Platform partner status with Sony, Microsoft, or Nintendo (you bring this).
* Enterprise plan with console support enabled.
