+Cross-compilation
+=================
+
+If you are planning to perform cross-compilation e.g. for Linux/Aarch64, you
+will probably want to use experimental feature ``--enable-bootstrap`` in your
+``.mozconfig``. Then, you just have to specify the the target arch, after which
+the build system will automatically set up the sysroot.
+
+For example, cross-compiling for Linux/Aarch64:
+
+.. code-block:: text
+
+ ac_add_options --target=aarch64-linux-gnu
+ ac_add_options --enable-bootstrap
