You´re in the right place of

• your interests are in the general computing on GPU not graphic processing,
• your interests are on Metal API from Apple Inc,
• your interests are on GPGPU on Apple products.

All others, thank for visit, bye 👋

GPGPU

For the many or few remaining...

The procedure for implementation

In order to carry out general calculations on the graphics card, apart from the specific programming task:

• the 👉 programming workflow
• the 👉 Metal function call

examples

• metal-base64 example implements the base64 encoding with GPGPU.
