Mercury has several back-ends, including low-level C (the original Mercury back-end), high-level C, Microsoft's IL for .NET, Sun's JVM, and assembler via the [[gcc]] back-end (the last three are only considered alpha or beta quality). This makes it useful for targeting multiple platforms, or linking with code written in multiple back-ends. The ability to include native code across these platforms is helpful, though it limits the portability to other Mercury back-ends.

Mercury is available for most [[Unix]] platforms, asfor Mac OS wellX, asand for Microsoft Windows using the [[Cygwin]] toolset.
