Software:Compiling environment

From HandWiki

A compiling environment is a collection of software that makes compiling possible, and is quite similar to an IDE, with the difference that the different pieces of software do not have to be integrated with each other from the beginning. A compiling environment in Microsoft Windows can for example consist of GNU Emacs, MinGW and MSYS.

An example of a correspondence to compiling environments when it comes to internet server software, would be LAMP or WAMP.
