NPComp - Frontends

NPComp maintains in-tree frontends for various popular numeric-python based frameworks. In general these are:

  • Considered optional components
  • Target dialects maintained at the top-level of the project
  • Maintained in isolation so as to facilitate moving them out to dedicated projects at an appropriate point of the lifecycle (i.e. if NPComp is successful as a general purpose target for such frameworks, then it may make sense to contribute/build each frontend to their respective up-stream project).

Frontends try to stylistically fit into the outer project except for when it is more clear/advantageous to align them with the conventions of the source project. This is approached on a case by case basis as needed. Deviations should be documented in a local style guide for the frontend.
