Compiling for different architectures with a NAS? (self.gentoo)

Hi ! I'd like to have a Gentoo computer. But also in the future a Gentoo cell phone. Why not a Gentoo home console?

Is it possible to provide all this hardware with pre-compiled updates with a NAS that would do this automatically periodically?

I have the impression that with Gentoo, I'll be able to create tailor-made systems for my devices, and it gives me lots of ideas, but compiling on all these machines makes me feel a bit cold

Sorry if this is a silly question, I'm neither a developer nor an administrator, but I'd really like to learn how to tinker with my PC !

I've been meaning to do something similar. The Binary Package Guide makes it sound possible to do, but I'm not sure how to do multiple repositories for different targets.

What you want is a binary package host https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Binary_package_guide#Setting_up_a_binary_package_host

It gets complicated when your phone and console have different cpu architectures. You will need to compile a binary package for each of them
