Where to find the documentation for cross-compilation?

[Klaus-Tockloth]

The cross-compilation (darwin/arm64 -> windows/amd64) of a minimal 'Hello World' program fails. Unfortunately, I could not find any further documentation on the subject of 'cross-compiling'.

Output from 'go build':

# compile 'windows'
env GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -o build/windows-amd64/hello.exe
# github.com/goki/vulkan
vendor/github.com/goki/vulkan/errors.go:8:19: undefined: Result

Output from 'core build':

I'm probably missing something ...

We do not currently have support for cross compiling between different desktop platforms, although you can compile to mobile and web platforms. We are planning to implement support for it soon; I filed #1107 and will work on it soon.
