Does anyone know how I can cross-compile software for a 1999 iMac G3 with a PowerPC processor? Are there resources on how to develop for this CPU and is there any community around it?

Well, one option would be either Open or NetBSD. They both have Power PC architecture ports and come with compilers. It would not be cross compiling, but you could run native and compile the source there.
