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.

Unifying the CUDA Python Ecosystem
that project might be abandoned but this strategy is used in nvidia and nvidia adjacent projects (through llvm):

>but we also need high level expressibility that doesn't require writing kernels in C
the above are possible because C is actually just a frontend to PTX
https://docs.nvidia.com/cuda/parallel-thread-execution/index...
fundamentally you are not going to ever be able to have a way to write cuda kernels without thinking about cuda architecture anymore so than you'll ever be able to write async code without thinking about concurrency.

I'm working on techno audio-visuals using Ableton & Javascript
If you've a Python background, I might suggest checking out something like https://github.com/pygfx/wgpu-py

Chrome Ships WebGPU
FYI you can already use webgpu directly in python, see https://github.com/pygfx/wgpu-py for webgpu wrappers and https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx for a more high level graphics library

I've just started mixing shaders with Pygame and got some great results
This reminds me of another Python GPU project, bringing in WebGPU shaders.

Unifying the CUDA Python Ecosystem
Somewhat related, I’ve built compute shaders using wgpu-py:
https://github.com/pygfx/wgpu-py
You can define any compute shader you like in Python, with the data types, and it compiles it to SPIRV and runs it.
