It appears to be a variable placeholder for whatever target triple you want to build. A little later it shows an example triple of thumbv7m-none-eabi and how this was set as the default target triple in the .cargo/config file.

what's a "target triple" ?

Here is a longer description: https://clang.llvm.org/docs/CrossCompilation.html#target-triple

It's basically the target that you want to compile for and it's (often) seperated in 3 parts. Therefore target triple.

Thanks, i will wait on some other PR's before reconsidering this.
