I think that's only for the gameboy advance, although it is what most people are using for the GBA.

For the gameboy people use raw assembly or I think GBDK if using C, although I think there are some problems with GBDK.

GBDK went mostly unmaintained for around ~20 years, and so it stagnated a bit. It has recently been upgraded to a modern version of the SDCC compiler with better optimization, and has seen bug fixes and a bunch of other improvements.

Oh that's excellent, I didn't realise it had been picked up again. Cheers!
