Abstract: Various aspects of the subject technology relate to systems, methods, and machine-readable media for cross-platform programmable network communication. The method includes receiving, at a network toolchain, instructions for network hardware of a radio access network (RAN), the instructions comprising a domain specific language for the RAN. The method also includes determining through the network toolchain an architectural model for the network hardware, the architectural model comprising network patterns of the network hardware. The method also includes generating, by the network toolchain, translated instructions based on the instructions, the translated instructions comprising a configuration and control layer (CCL) code. The method also includes sending the CCL code to the network hardware. The method also includes executing the CCL code by the network hardware. The method also includes causing the network hardware to perform a network function based on execution of the CCL code.
