## What it is
MARLlib is a unified multi-agent reinforcement learning library built on Ray and RLlib with PyTorch, providing implementations of many MARL algorithms and integration with numerous multi-agent environments. It offers a unified API for training, tuning, and benchmarking MARL agents across cooperative, competitive, and mixed settings.

## Use cases
- train multi-agent reinforcement learning agents
- benchmark MARL algorithms across environments
- run cooperative and competitive multi-agent RL experiments
- use PettingZoo environments with RLlib
- reproduce multi-agent RL research results
- compare centralized vs decentralized training approaches

## When to choose
- you need many MARL algorithms under one unified API
- you want Ray/RLlib scalability for multi-agent training
- you want built-in support for popular multi-agent environments like MPE, SMAC, and PettingZoo

## When to avoid
- you need single-agent RL only
- you require the latest RLlib versions or active feature development
- you need lightweight training without Ray dependencies

## Facets
