    I think at the moment the I would use https://github.com/bheisler/RustaCUDA/ and C/C++ `.cu` files with `extern "C"` to call from Rust. Even though there are experiments to have nvptx as a compilation target for Rust.

    Once you have a compiled kernel (in Rust or CUDA C), RustaCUDA provides basic bindings to load and execute it. I haven't been maintaining or extending it for a while now since I haven't been doing GPGPU stuff, but it should still work, at least for the parts of the API that it exposes.
