One Source, Multiple Platforms: CrabPascal's Conditional Compilation Strategy

CrabPascal's preprocessor enables developers to maintain a unified Pascal codebase across Windows, Linux, and other platforms through IFDEF directives—a capability essential for reducing code duplication and managing platform-specific features. By integrating conditional compilation into the standard workflow, CrabPascal mirrors Delphi's compilation model while supporting gradual feature rollouts through symbol-based feature flags.
