Rust CUDA: Bringing High-Speed GPU Computing to Rust

The Rust CUDA project aims to make Rust a top-tier language for extremely fast GPU computing using the CUDA Toolkit. It provides tools for compiling Rust to highly optimized PTX code and libraries for interfacing with existing CUDA libraries. Addressing past challenges in integrating Rust with CUDA, it offers a comprehensive suite of crates covering various aspects of the CUDA ecosystem, including GPU-side functions, CUDA driver API wrappers, and OptiX support for ray tracing. While still in early development, the project seeks to propel the Rust GPU computing industry forward.
