Kwker

Install on macOS (Apple silicon)

Kwker runs on Macs with Apple silicon (M1 and later), macOS 15 or newer. In 0.1.0 this platform is experimental: the packages build and pass their tests here, and speed is measured but not promised.

Python

ShellOn your machine.
pip install kwker
python -m kwker doctor          # prints the engine in use (NEON)

The wheel holds the core library and the kwker command.

C and C++

Use the kwker-c-0.1.0-macos-aarch64.tar.gz archive: headers, libkwker_c.dylib, the static library, pkg-config and CMake files - the same layout as on Linux (see Installation).

Rust

TOMLRuns on your machine.
[dependencies]
kwker = "0.1"

The build compiles the NEON engine with Apple clang.

Not in the macOS packages yet

The PyTorch extensions, the KwkCNN / KwkEncoder / KwkDecoder runners, the Kwker Runtime with its ONNX Runtime provider, the DuckDB extension and the Polars plugin. Everything else in the package works without them.
