What is OCCA?

In a nutshell, OCCA (like oca-rina) is an open-source library which aims to

  • Make it easy to program different types of devices (e.g. CPU, GPU, FPGA)
  • Provide a unified API for interacting with backend device APIs (e.g. OpenMP, CUDA, HIP, OpenCL, Metal)
  • Use just-in-time compilation to build backend kernels
  • Provide a kernel language, a minor extension to C, to abstract programming for each backend
