## What it is
EVE is a C++20 header-only library providing a type-based, high-abstraction wrapper over SIMD instruction sets (SSE/AVX-512, NEON/SVE, AltiVec) for high-performance computing. It is a research-oriented reimplementation of the former Boost.SIMD library.

## Use cases
- write portable SIMD code in C++ without intrinsics
- vectorize numeric kernels across x86 and ARM
- accelerate math-heavy loops with AVX-512 or NEON
- write high-performance code that targets multiple SIMD ISAs
- replace hand-written SSE/AVX intrinsics with expressive C++20 abstractions

## When to choose
- you need portable explicit SIMD across Intel, ARM, and PowerPC
- you want high-level abstractions without sacrificing performance
- your codebase can use C++20
- you need wide mathematical function coverage over SIMD registers

## When to avoid
- you need GPU (GPGPU) vectorization
- you require ARM SVE with dynamic vector lengths
- you are stuck on pre-C++20 compilers
- you need a fully frozen, guaranteed-stable API before the 0.1 release
