The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Ask HN: Best way to learn GPU programming?
It would also mean learning Julia, but you can write GPU kernels in Julia and then compile for NVidia CUDA, AMD ROCm or IBM oneAPI.
https://juliagpu.org/
I've written CUDA kernels and I knew nothing about it going in.

C++ is making me depressed / CUDA question
If you just want to do some numerical code that requires linear algebra and GPU, your best bet would be Julia or Python+JAX.

Generic GPU Kernels

Indeed cool to program julia directly on the GPU and Julia on GPU and this has further evolved since then, see https://juliagpu.org/

Announcing The Rust CUDA Project; An ecosystem of crates and tools for writing and executing extremely fast GPU code fully in Rust
I'm excited to eventually see something like JuliaGPU with support for multiple backends.

[Media] 100% Rust path tracer running on CPU, GPU (CUDA), and OptiX (for denoising) using one of my upcoming projects. There is no C/C++ code at all, the program shares a single rust crate for the core raytracer and uses rust for the viewer and renderer.
That's really cool! Have you looked at CUDA.jl for the Julia language? Maybe you could take some ideas from there. I am pretty sure it does the same thing you do here, and they support any arbitrary code with the limitations that you cannot allocate memory, I/O is disallowed, and badly-typed code(dynamic) will not compile.

We Use Julia, 10 Years Later
I don't think it's frowned upon to compile, many people want this capability as well. If you had a program that could be proven to use no dynamic dispatch it would probably be feasible to compile it as a static binary. But as long as you have a tiny bit of dynamic behavior, you need the Julia runtime so currently a binary will be very large, with lots of theoretically unnecessary libraries bundled into it. There are already efforts like GPUCompiler[1] that do fixed-type compilation, there will be more in this space in the future.

Cuda.jl v3.3: union types, debug info, graph APIs
A fun fact is that the GPUCompiler, which compiles the code to run in GPU's, is the current way to generate binaries without hiding the whole ~200mb of julia runtime in the binary.
