Rust-GPU/rust-cuda

Ecosystem of libraries and tools for writing and executing fast GPU code fully in Rust.

What it solves

It provides a way to write and execute high-performance GPU code entirely in the Rust programming language, removing the need to use other languages typically associated with CUDA development.

How it works

The project creates an ecosystem of libraries and tools that allow developers to target NVIDIA GPUs using Rust, enabling the execution of extremely fast code directly on the hardware.

Who it’s for

Developers who want to leverage the performance of CUDA GPUs while using the safety and features of the Rust language.

Highlights

  • High-performance GPU execution
