• No Nightly toolchains required.
• Interactive Showcase: Real-Time 3D Raymarching Enki unifies host and accelerator execution.
• The showcase below demonstrates a real-time procedural 3D raymarching with smooth lighting, ambient occlusion, and mouse-driven orbital camera controls—compiled just-in-time from a single Rust function running on a potato GPU: Pressing SPACE dynamically switches execution between GPU silicon (Enki) and multi-threaded CPU cores (Rayon) in real time.
• Run the Demo: git clone https://github.com/enkiruntime/enki_sdf.git cd enki_sdf cargo run Quick Start Add Enki and glam to your project: cargo add enki-gpu glam Replace src/main.rs with the following: use enki :: * ; use glam :: Vec2 ; const COUNT : usize = 5 ; // Declare the compute kernel with #[nam] # [ nam ] fn scale_vectors ( _space : & Space , input : & Vec2 , output : & mut Vec2 , factor : f32 ) { * output = * input * factor ; } fn main ( ) { // Initialize the headless GPU runtime let enki = Enki :: init ( ) ; // Allocate physical data directly in GPU VRAM let in_gpu = gpu_vec !
