 No. |CL| uses open source compilers: :command:`gcc` and :command:`clang`. |CL|

 Why does it have a different approach to software management?
 =============================================================
 The |CL| team wants software *installation* and *updates* to be as efficient
 and error free as possible. |CL| packages software differently and uses a
 novel updater to solve some of the classic problems with how the software
 packages are on Linux.
