A .NET library to run C# code in parallel on the GPU through DX12, D2D1, and dynamically generated HLSL compute and pixel shaders, with the goal of making GPU computing easy to use for all .NET developers! 🚀

Read the blog post on Medium here.
The changelog here is mostly the same as for 2.0.0-preview1, just with additional bug fixes and performance improvements. This release includes a completely overhauled library compared to the previous 1.4.1 release, along with tons of new changes. It's impossible to list all of them here, so here's just some of the biggest changes. But there's much, much more that's included across all available libraries!
