emu
A write-once-run-anywhere GPGPU library for Rust that abstracts WebGPU for CUDA-like compute with portability across desktop, mobile, and browser.
What is emu?
Emu is a GPGPU library for Rust that provides a CUDA-like compute abstraction over WebGPU, enabling portable GPU acceleration across multiple platforms including DirectX, Metal, Vulkan, and eventually OpenGL and browsers. It focuses on portability, modularity, and performance, allowing developers to offload heavy computations to user devices to reduce latency and improve privacy.
Rust developers working on compute-intensive applications who need cross-platform GPU acceleration, such as those building scientific simulations, data processing pipelines, or graphics tools that require CUDA-like ergonomics without being locked to specific hardware.
Developers choose Emu for its unique combination of CUDA-like ergonomics with full WebGPU transparency, enabling zero-overhead interop with graphics and custom caches, alongside asynchronous execution and automatic device management for ease of use.
