+## Sharp Cross-Platform Installation
+
+The default [IPX](/providers/ipx) provider uses [sharp](https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com) for image processing. At install time, your package manager downloads prebuilt sharp binaries **only for your current OS and CPU architecture**. This means if you build on macOS or Windows and deploy to a Linux server (or build on x64 and deploy to ARM64), the required sharp binaries might be missing, resulting in errors like:
+
+```
+[500] [IPX_ERROR] Could not load the "sharp" module using the linux-x64 runtime
+```
+
+To fix this, configure your package manager to install sharp binaries for **all target platforms**, e.g.:
+
+::code-group
+
+```json [pnpm (package.json)]
+{
+  "pnpm": {
+    "supportedArchitectures": {
+      "os": ["current", "linux"],
+      "cpu": ["current", "x64", "arm64"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+```yaml [yarn (.yarnrc.yml, v3+ only)]
+supportedArchitectures:
+  os:
+    - current
+    - linux
+  cpu:
+    - current
+    - x64
+    - arm64
+```
+
+```bash [npm]
+npm install --cpu=x64 --os=linux sharp
+npm install --cpu=arm64 --os=linux sharp
+```
+
+::
+
+After updating the configuration, reinstall dependencies to download the additional platform binaries.
+
+For more details, see the [sharp cross-platform documentation](https://sharp.pixelplumbing.com/install/#cross-platform).

-- If there is still an error related to `sharp` and `node-gyp`, it is probably because your OS architecture or NodeJS version is not included in pre-built binaries and needs to be built from source (for example, this sometimes occurs on Apple M1). Checkout [node-gyp](https://github.com/nodejs/node-gyp#installation) for install requirements.
 - If none of the above worked, please [open an issue](https://github.com/nuxt/image/issues) and include error trace, OS, Node version and the package manager used for installing.
