TCP/IP is big-endian, which is likely the largest footprint for these concerns.

"htonl, htons, ntohl, ntohs - convert values between host and network byte order"

The cheapest big-endian modern device is a Raspberry Pi running a NetBSD "eb" release, for those who want to test their code.

Yeah, you deal with order when marshaling stuff on the wire, I haven’t dealt with it much for years, but doing embedded software that used to be in my face a lot.
