GradeA

A well-known project done right. Strong docs and solid engineering throughout.

cuda-oxide is an experimental Rust-to-CUDA compiler that lets you write (SIMT) GPU kernels in safe(ish), idiomatic Rust. It compiles standard Rust code directly to PTX — no DSLs, no foreign language bindings, just Rust.
