### Who is this for?
This Learning Path is for both C and C++ developers who want to migrate applications that rely on optimized performance libraries from x86 to Arm Architecture.

### What will you learn?
Upon completion of this Learning Path, you will be able to:
- Describe the differences between standard and performance libraries.
- Incorporate optimized libraries.
- Port a basic application from x86 to AArch64.

### Prerequisites
Before starting, you will need the following:
- Access to both an Arm and an x86-based cloud instance.
- Intermediate understanding of C++, compilers, and Linux.
