## Useful for

- Run a CUDA application on an AMD or Intel GPU without recompiling
- Test scientific CUDA software on non-NVIDIA hardware
- Benchmark CUDA workloads on NVIDIA versus third-party GPUs

## Why it’s here

- Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-14 (UTC), 10:58–11:49: 15048 → 15047 stars (-1). This is the change over that interval.
- Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +22 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
- Over the last two days the pace is 13× that of the previous week and a half.
- Elevated gains were measured on the last 2 completed UTC days in a row. Continued growth is not guaranteed.
- GitHub Trending Rust today: #3, +72 stars.

## Star trust

Star growth looks organic.

Star-trust labels are heuristics based on the repository’s behavior, not a check of every stargazer.

## Numbers

- Forks: 955
- Issues and pull requests: 605
- Watchers: 149
- Average over the last week: 22 per day
- Usual pace: 5 per day
- Stars in the last hour (measured): 1
- Latest release: v7-preview.15 (2026-10-08)

Magnitude (0–10) measures how fast and how unusually interest in a repository is growing right now. It is not a quality score.
Days are UTC. “So far today” is a fact; “expected by the end of the day” is a forecast.
Summaries and use cases are written by an LLM (DeepSeek V4.1 Flash) from the README and may be inaccurate: verify specific claims (benchmarks, speed, hardware) in the repository itself.
