CUDA.jl is the main Julia package for programming NVIDIA CUDA GPUs, offering a high-level CuArray abstraction, a compiler for writing CUDA kernels in Julia, and wrappers for CUDA libraries. It has been developed since 2014 and aims for CUDA C-level performance without requiring a separate CUDA toolkit installation.

Use cases

• run array computations on an NVIDIA GPU from Julia
• write custom CUDA kernels in Julia instead of C
• accelerate scientific computing workloads with GPUs
• offload matrix operations to the GPU without GPU programming experience
• interface directly with CUDA APIs and libraries from Julia

When to choose

• you program in Julia and want GPU acceleration on NVIDIA hardware
• you want a high-level array abstraction with automatic GPU offloading
• you need CUDA C-level performance while writing kernels in Julia
• you want automatic CUDA toolkit installation without manual setup

When to avoid

• you use AMD or Intel GPUs rather than NVIDIA
• you need GPU programming in Python, C++, or another language
• you have no NVIDIA driver available on your system
